Enrollment & Pricing · 2027 Filing Season

What your office is actually enrolling in.

R&A Pro-Tax Software Solutions™ is a service bureau. An enrollment covers coordinated tax-software access plus the R&A work around it — onboarding, provisioning, bank-enrollment assistance, support, and training. Some capabilities are separately activated, and some requirements come from third parties such as the IRS or a bank. This page separates all three so nothing is assumed.

Exact package fees, the current fee schedule, and any third-party requirements are confirmed in writing by an R&A representative during enrollment. No fee is charged before a written agreement is executed.

R&A Pro-Tax Software Solutions™

Your service bureau and the party you contract with. R&A delivers enrollment, onboarding, provisioning, support, and training.

R&A Pro-Tax Software Solutions™

The branded professional tax software your office receives — access link, assigned credentials, your office name inside the account, and, subject to written provider verification, Branded Mobile Tax App availability for your taxpayers. ROSSNEXUS™ is the separate enrollment and office-relationship system.

Bank & IRS requirements

Bank products, EFIN, and PTIN come from third parties with their own applications, approvals, agreements, and fees.

Choose your tax-software package

R&A Pro-Tax Software Solutions™ is professional tax-office software for licensed preparers — it is not a consumer self-filing product. Every line below carries a status label so nothing is assumed.

Unlimited preparer user accounts are available with every package for the enrolled office. Package recommendations are based on onboarding scope, support level and office complexity—not a preparer-seat restriction.

Unlimited preparer accounts apply within the enrolled office. Additional offices, EFINs, locations or separate business entities may require separate enrollment and approval. Per-accepted-return fees apply according to the office’s written enrollment fee schedule and are confirmed before any agreement is signed.

Onboarding and activation timing

Please allow up to 30 calendar days for onboarding and activation. Many offices complete their portion sooner. Timing depends on receiving complete business information, agreements, PTIN/EFIN documentation, banking requirements when applicable, training, provider review, and provisioning.

To improve your opportunity to be ready for filing season, purchase and begin onboarding by December 1, 2026. Enrollment after that date may still be accepted, but activation by a particular date cannot be guaranteed.

R&A does not promise instant access or a guaranteed activation date.

Before you enroll

Terms, policies and support

Third-party requirements & fees

What comes from the IRS, a bank, or another provider

R&A assists with these, but does not set their fees, issue their credentials, or make their approval decisions.

Bank-product enrollment
Optional Add-On

Bank products require a separate application to the bank. The bank — not R&A — makes the approval decision and sets its own fees under its own agreement.

Bank and transmission fees
Optional Add-On

Any bank, transmitter, or funded-return fees are governed by the bank product agreement in effect for your office. R&A does not publish third-party fee schedules.

EFIN / PTIN
Optional Add-On

Your office must obtain and maintain its own EFIN and preparer PTINs directly with the IRS. R&A assists; R&A does not issue them.

Payment processing
Optional Add-On

Card and ACH processing is performed by our payment processor under its own terms.

How pricing is confirmed

We quote your office, in writing, before you commit.

  • Package fees are confirmed for the 2027 filing season during enrollment, in writing.
  • R&A does not publish bank, transmission, or funded-return fee amounts — those are set by the bank in its own agreement.
  • CRM & Office Operations, mobile-app activation, and configuration services are quoted separately.
  • R&A does not publish return volumes, earnings, savings, or revenue projections. Your results are your own.
  • Any incentive, credit, or program terms are disclosed in writing and are subject to account standing.

Straight answers

Questions offices ask before enrolling

What am I paying R&A for?

R&A Pro-Tax Software Solutions™ is your service bureau. Your enrollment pays R&A for coordinated tax-software access, onboarding, bank-enrollment assistance, provisioning, technical support, training, and an assigned Office Success™ representative for the filing season.

What tax software do I receive access to?

R&A Pro-Tax Software Solutions™ is the branded professional tax software your office receives. R&A configures, delivers, and supports your access — your software link, assigned credentials, your office name inside the account, and, where verified and approved, Branded Mobile Tax App availability for your taxpayers. ROSSNEXUS™ is the separate enrollment and office-relationship system and does not prepare or transmit returns.

What Service Bureau assistance is included?

Enrollment, office onboarding, provisioning coordination, bank-enrollment assistance, ticketed technical support, R&A training, and Office Success™ case ownership are included for the term of your agreement.

Is CRM & Office Operations included or separately activated?

CRM & Office Operations is a separate activation. It is not automatically included in a software enrollment. Availability, scope, and fees are confirmed in writing before activation.

Are there third-party or bank-product requirements?

Yes. Your office must hold a valid EFIN and each preparer a valid PTIN. Bank products require a separate application and approval by the bank, and any bank or transmission fees are set by the bank under its own agreement.

What may cost extra?

CRM & Office Operations, custom-branded or ROSSNEXUS mobile-app activation, CRM setup, data migration, automation build-out, marketing or launch assistance, and services delivered by other Ross & Associates businesses. Each is quoted separately and never bundled silently into a software quote. The Branded Mobile Tax App is associated with your professional software access rather than a CRM activation; its current verified status is Third-Party Approval Required and it is delivered through its own activation process, which does not automatically mean a separate add-on fee.

What is Available versus Preview or Planned?

Every line item on this page carries a label. Available means an office can use it today after onboarding. Separate Activation means it requires its own agreement or activation. Preview means limited or internal review. Planned means not yet built.

What do I do if I want enrollment information?

Request Enrollment Information. An R&A representative confirms your office requirements, the exact package, the current fee schedule, and any third-party requirements in writing before you commit to anything.
