Tax Prep Supplies

[Chowdahead]

Happy 2012 everyone. I am looking to order some envelopes for my client's returns. I ordered from Nelco last year but prices seem a bit steep this year.

Can anyone recommend an online tax preparer supplies store that I can compare prices with? Even better if they are compatible with ATX software, which Nelco seems to lack this year as well.

I have bought from Tenez Inc. http://www.tenenz.com/

Prices are reasonable.

I buy a lot of supplies from Ten-Enz. They are ATX compatible, good quality and not a bad price. If you order early, you get a discount

and you get a discount for ordering on-line.

Ditto with good luck from Tenenz.

CFS (taxtools dot com) also has envelopes etc., as do several other places. Prices seem pretty competitive.

For return mailing envelopes, though, I usually just get plain-Jane Tyvek envelopes -- or use Priority Mail flat-rate envelopes. The small premium I pay for Priority Mail is far less than the bother of going to the post office to send first-class items that weigh over 13 oz.

I get everything from Tenenz. It used to be Tax Aid and I have ordered tax supplies from them for years. Fast delivery and some nice discounts once you get set up with them.

I order from Tenenz too. ATX compatible (I love the slip sheets for addressing packages to clients or tax returns that have to be paper filed), and a decent price. I got my website through AFSB, which I discovered in the Tenenz catalog too!

Which of the Tenenz 1099 envelopes fits the ones laser printed via ATX?

[mcb39]

I don't have catalog handy, but I use uni-forms and print the 1099's on them and use the same envelope that I use for the W2's

I use Uniforms too.

Thanks for the tips. I ordered from Tenenz in 2009, but I forgot the name of the place and didn't have a second to look up the invoice. I ordered from Nelco last year.

I did place an an order from Tenenz on Jan. 3 Still haven't received it. I received an order confirmation but no shipment confirmation, which I found odd.

I've e-mailed them to see what's up.
