Oklahoma Third-Party Access (TPA) and Power of Attorney (POA) Requirements

Why is this important?
Beyond acts on your behalf with government agencies by reporting new hires to state labor departments, calculating tax rates, submitting tax payments and insurance contributions, and filing required financial reports. To perform these tasks effectively, you must authorize us to represent your company with tax authorities in each state where you have tax obligations.

For instance, if your business operates in both Oklahoma and Texas, you will need to complete and submit a Power of Attorney for both states.

Oklahoma Tax Commission

Third-Party Agent (TPA) Access for Oklahoma Tax Commission
To file and prepare your Oklahoma income taxes, the state requires you to grant us Professional Tax Preparer Approval (TPA) through your Oklahoma Taxpayer Access Point (OK TAP) account.

Steps to provide access:

  1. Log into your OK TAP account and create a passphrase for Third Party Access (TPA).
  2. Submit a request including:
