An automated system prepares a new tax return for a user based on information associated with the user's return from a previous year. The system uses the tax return from the previous year to obtain taxpayer data and to identify sources of current data. It retrieves current year information from the sources and uses it together with data from the previous year return to prepare a new tax return with minimal user assistance. In an embodiment, the system determines the likely accuracy of a new tax return generated based on the previous year tax return, and prepares the new tax return only if the likely accuracy is above a predetermined threshold.

Proactive tax preparation

A method for completing a form including selecting a first topic appearing on the form, receiving a first panel within a graphical user interface (GUI), where the first panel is associated with the first topic and is used to complete a section of the form, assigning a first panel relevance rating to the first panel, supplying a response to the first panel, receiving a second panel predicted based on the first topic and the first panel relevance rating, assigning a second panel relevance rating to the second panel, and receiving the section of the form after the section is completed based on the response to the first panel.

Method and system for predictive form completion

A system and method for completing a financial form including generating a navigation path by selecting a plurality of financial events, where the navigation path is used as a framework to complete the financial form, selecting a webinar event from the plurality of financial events in the navigation path, where the webinar event is one of the plurality of financial events associated with at least one webinar related to one of the plurality of financial events, and completing at least a portion of the financial form using the at least one webinar.
