Key Capabilities
Real-Time Form Status Checks with the MCP Server
Calling `get_submission_status` shows exactly where a filing sits right now. You'll see that status update stream into your UI as it happens, not after some loading spinner kicks in. The `list_transmissions` tool gives you a history of all filings—W-2s, 1099s, and ACA forms included. Your agent can pull this list live, letting the user see every date and status change appear instantly.
Managing Client Records via the MCP Server
`create_business` lets your client register a new entity with one call. You'll get confirmation back immediately, which you can stream right to the user interface. Need details? Use `get_business_details` to pull specific data points—like an EIN or address—and show them live in your app. It’s perfect for building a dashboard where nothing feels stale.
Listing and Filtering Tax Forms with the MCP Server
`list_tax_forms` lets you filter what forms are available, like pulling up only 1099s or only W-2s. This is useful for showing users exactly which tax documents they need to worry about. You can also run `list_businesses`, giving the user a clean list of all registered accounts. It’s fast and direct: you ask for it, and the data streams in.
