Trustfile Takes Headache Out of Preparing, Filing Unemployment Compensation Tax Returns for Florida Businesses

Florida businesses that file unemployment compensation tax (UCT) returns must be sure they’ve paid the right amounts and must keep up with UCT regulations. Trustfile's new software aims to make the preparation and transmission of 2004 UCT returns—on paper or via electronic filing—a quicker and less cumbersome process. Trustfile also is offering a free trial of the software until the end of the year.

Baton Rouge, LA (PRWEB) April 26, 2004

Florida businesses that file unemployment compensation tax (UCT) returns not only must be sure they’ve paid the right amounts but also have to keep up with UCT regulations. But new software from Trustfile aims to make the preparation and transmission of 2004 UCT returns—on paper or via electronic filing—a quicker and less cumbersome process. Trustfile also is offering a free trial of the software until the end of the year.

“Based on feedback from customers, we’ve made some significant improvements that will eliminate the headaches businesses often experience during the UCT filing process,” said King Woolf, Trustfile’s president. “And the free trial makes this a no-risk opportunity for filers.”

Trustfile’s 2004 FloridaUCT software offers:

    Direct importing from Microsoft Excel (.xls files).

    Batch transmissions and printing, allowing transmission or printing of returns for multiple companies at one time.

    The ability to print file-ready, state-approved paper returns from the application.

    Federal UCT tax forms 940 and 941 included in the software.

100,000 electronic filers mandated in Florida

Florida’s Department of Revenue (DOR) mandates that some 100,000 businesses must file their UCT returns electronically (“e-filing”). Trustfile software and processing system offers e-filers several key benefits:

•    Confidence in safe and secure e-filing: Trustfile software offers timely acknowledgement of filing and payment, the assurance of quality and accuracy of filings, automatic form calculations as states specify them and tax data that are securely stored on their own systems.

•    Extensive staff knowledge of e-filing and e-payment requirements: Approved by DORs in several states, Trustfile was the first company in the nation authorized by a state to facilitate sales and use tax e-filing and e-payment.

•    An easy, cost-effective way to prepare, e-file and e-pay business taxes: Trustfile software features an easy-to-use interface, a simple way to import users’ tax data without having to manually input the information, and quick access to historical data for reference, planning or audit purposes. That way, companies can spend less time filing taxes and more time building their businesses. Trustfile also offers access to knowledgeable, prompt customer service and technical support.
