Frequently Asked Question
-
Where can I find the TaxCaddy mobile app? Do I have to get it?
For anyone with a smartphone or tablet device, the TaxCaddy app is a great addition. By using the app, you can take pictures of paper documents and upload them as you receive them (similar to depositing a check using your mobile banking app). You can also send a message to your CTBK advisor from any location where you have an internet connection. The app is not required, but it certainly adds features to make your tax filing process easier. To download the app, use the links below.

How do I connect my TaxCaddy account to CTBK?
CTBK will request to connect with you. By connecting with CTBK, you’ll be able to communicate with your tax advisor, and they will have access to the tax documents you upload in TaxCaddy.
-
Will I be signing my individual income tax return through TaxCaddy?
No. While TaxCaddy offers this feature, CTBK uses SafeSend Returns for secure delivery of your tax return. Because TaxCaddy is integrated with SafeSend Returns, once you sign your e-file authorization forms, a copy of your tax return will automatically be added to your TaxCaddy account.
-
How do I upload a document(s)?
To upload documents to TaxCaddy, you can either use taxcaddy.com or the mobile app. Click here for instructions.
-
Can my spouse, or someone else, access my TaxCaddy account? Can I remove someone from accessing my account?
Whether it’s a spouse or another trusted individual, you can invite an additional user to your account. The added user can upload documents, view tax documents you’ve already uploaded, and review your tax professional’s uploads. Adding a spouse as your additional user allows him or her to sign any spouse-related documents. At any time, you can take away an additional user’s access. Click here to learn how to add or disconnect a user.
