Account Access
Business Owners or Employees
- Access my Business Tax Accounts Online
  If you have multiple business tax accounts, you may add access to all of the business tax accounts (i.e., Sales and Use, Local Exposition, Premier Resort, Rental Vehicle, Withholding, etc.) associated with the same business. After logging in, select Add Access to an Account from the homepage and choose Register Business Accounts.
  You will be required to verify the following information for the business tax type you wish to access:
  - Business Tax Account Type
  - Total or Net Tax Due from one of the three most recently filed returns or deposit reports or estimated payments made; OR
  - The Letter Identification Number (LXXXXXXXXXX) listed on one of four letters we routinely send, such as the Business Tax Registration Greeting Letter, E-Filing Requirement Letter, Tax Incremental District Fees Letter or Wage Attachment Certification Letter
  Each owner, officer, governmental representative, or designated employee that successfully requests access to one business tax account (i.e., Sales and Use, Withholding, etc.) will automatically receive access to all business tax accounts. The user with 'Master' level access can limit access for all other users.
- Need to Access Multiple Businesses
  You have two registration options as a business owner or employee needing access to multiple businesses/governmental entities:
  - You may select Add Third Party Account Access from the homepage and then select Client is not registered for My Tax Account, using the first business that you have already registered in My Tax Account. This can also be used as an alternative method to register to "File and Pay" for your multiple business entities under one username. Enter the required information to request access to each of your business entities. This registration method does not provide you with 'Master' level access for these additional business entities.
    
    Note: We recommend that the owner/officer of each business entity obtain their own username to access their business in My Tax Account. This will allow the business owner to have 'Master' level access.
  - The first user that registers the business is granted the 'Master' level access. This will require a unique profile email address for each username.
  - A user that owns a business and is also an employee of another business, should register their profile as their own business and then request third party access to "file and pay only" for their employer's business using the same username.
- Allow a Third Party Preparer to Access my Business Tax Accounts Online
  Note: Make sure that the third party preparer has requested access of accounts.

  A third party preparer may request access to your business tax accounts if you are NOT registered to use My Tax Account. In order to select this access, the third party preparer must have a Form A-777a on file that you (their client) have signed. This form provides your approval to file returns, make payments and access tax account information through My Tax Account.
  Please note: Third party preparers are not allowed access to the following business tax types: Ambulatory Surgical Center Assessment Survey, Real Estate Transfer, Tax Incremental Financing, and Utility Taxes. Only business owners or employees of the business are allowed access to file reports and payments for these tax types.

  Each username requires a unique profile email address.
  If you are no longer using a username, you may cancel your online access by following the Cancel Online Access steps. Once your prior username is closed, you can use that email address for a new username.
  Note: If your profile email address is incorrectly listed for a username, you will not receive any email notifications from us.

Troubleshooting
Unlocking Your Account
My Tax Account login requires a username, password, and security code.
You must use your own username that you created when you registered for My Tax Account. You can't use the username of another individual, including co-workers or clients.
After logging in with your username and password, you may be prompted to request a security code by text or email. You entered this information in your profile when you first logged into My Tax Account. Please allow a couple minutes for the text or email to arrive.
Once you receive the six-character code, enter it into the Security Code field. A security code is only good once.
Tips if you are having problems:
- If you've used an incorrect username or password, use the Forgot Password or Forgot Username links on the login page.
- If you haven't logged in for a while, you may see your profile information screen and be asked to update your profile.
- If you haven't received a code by email, be sure to check your junk or spam folder. You may also need to check your server or computer security settings and add MTASupport@wisconsin.gov as a trusted email address.
- If you still haven't receive your code, call us at (608) 261-5338.
Before you log in the next time, select Yes under Trust This Browser to avoid requesting a security code each time you log in. However, if you log in for the first time with another browser or computer, or your browser cookies were deleted, you will be prompted to request a new security code.
