GET YOUR REFUND FAST!

Maine 's FastFile methods are the quickest and most accurate way of filing your income tax return. FastFile saves taxpayers money because FastFile returns are less expensive to process than paper returns.

E-File is a convenient and accurate way to file your Maine Individual Income Tax return.

File using a participating preparer, purchase commercial software or a commercial web site. Most of these options offer direct deposit of your refund, electronic funds withdrawal for a balance due return and even delayed debit.

Additionally, you or your preparer will receive verification that your return has been accepted.

The following returns are not allowed to file using E-File:

  • returns with a power of attorney currently in effect for the refund to be sent to a third party
  • returns claiming a filing status that differs from the federal filing status except when a Schedule NRH is filed
  • amended or corrected returns prior to 2013
  • State returns prior to 2013
