Three levels, from your first W-2 to K-1s and foreign tax credits

Every level shows the complete 2025 Form 1040 and its schedules. What changes is how much of the return you work through. Each level has five case studies with a guided walkthrough, a practice mode that checks your answers, and an answer sheet. Every student gets their own numbers.

How it works

Learn the return the way a preparer reads it

No real taxpayer data is ever needed. Everything runs on fictional case studies or practice files you create.

01

Choose your training

Pick the country and tax domain, then a level and one of five case studies with your own numbers.

02

Watch the walkthrough

Each step moves one amount from its source document to its line on the return, with the math and the rule.

03

Practise it yourself

Fill in the return from the practice documents. Check your answers to see which lines match and get a hint for the rest.

04

Use the answer sheet

Stuck? Open the answer sheet for every correct value and its working, then try a new version.
