Grant access to your Washington State DOR account



On dor.wa.gov click the Log in button.
Log in by entering your SAW User ID and Password and then, click Log in to My DOR. If asked, complete the Multi-Factor Authentication challenge to verify your identity.
On the My DOR Services page, click Get Started.
On the account Summary page, click the More Options tab.
In the Your Account section, click Add or Remove Other User’s Access.
On the Manage Customer Access page, click the Add User link.
On the User Information page, User ID: sidrtax, Email Address: autofile@sidr.io. Click the Next button.
On the Access Type page, select Account Manager and then, click Next.
On the Account Selection page, select the account(s) you want Sidr Tax to have access to. The user access level should be Prepare and Pay.
Click Next.
On the Verification page, review your selections and then, click Submit.
On the Confirmation page, click the Print Confirmation button to print this information for your records. Click OK.
Sidr Tax is now listed under the User IDs section of the Manage Customer Access page.
Before the enrollment process is complete, you will still need to manually file.

Business and Occupation (B&O) tax return



Sidr Tax will also file your Business and Occupation (B&O) tax return as part of the Autofile process for free. We assume that your business classification is Retail. If that is not the case, please let us know ahead of time.

Please note that the B&O tax is not visible in our tax reports, since the B&O tax is similar to the Corporate Income Tax and not collected from your customers.
