Abstract
A method and computer program product for electronically filing a financial document with an agency on behalf of a client. The document is received from a first computing device operated by an electronic filing entity. A first request is received from the first computing device to collect an electronic signature from the client on an authorization form authorizing electronic filing of the document with the agency on behalf of the client, and to collect electronic payment from the client. An electronic envelope is received from a second computing device, which is then sent to the first computing device. An authorization form may be attached to the electronic envelope and sent to the second computing device. The second computing device collects the electronic signature from the client and facilitates electronic payment from the client to a third computer. The document is then electronically filed with the agency.
