As an exclusive TaxAct benefit, BluPrint is a tool designed to help filers assess their fiscal fitness and achieve their financial goals.
"Working with consumers to maximize their tax refunds and simplify the e-filing process is important, but we also look to empower them to improve all areas of their financial lives," said Curtis Campbell, President of TaxAct. "BluPrint gives our customers the information and resources they need to identify their financial priorities, set goals, and take meaningful steps toward making their money work harder for them."
