Questions
Before you switch.
Do I need Windows, Parallels or Boot Camp?
No. eBIRForms needs Windows; Tax Techie is a Mac app, so it runs on your Mac as it is.
Which Mac do I need?
macOS 13.3 (Ventura) or later, on a Mac with Apple silicon. Tax Techie hasn't been confirmed on Intel Macs yet.
Can I bring my returns from my Windows PC?
Yes, for the forms Tax Techie has. Copy the returns you saved in eBIRForms to your Mac and open them in Tax Techie.
Will my numbers match eBIRForms?
Yes, for the forms Tax Techie has. Underneath, it works as eBIRForms 7.9.6.2 does: the same fields, the same totals, the same printed copy.
Is Tax Techie made by BIR?
No. Tax Techie is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Bureau of Internal Revenue. eBIRForms is BIR's own program. Tax Techie is a separate app that does the same job.
