Why Privacy Matters Here
Your tax files contain your most sensitive financial data
Social Security numbers. Bank account details. Employer information. Investment records. Income history. This is the data identity thieves use to file fraudulent tax returns in your name — it's the #1 form of tax fraud in the US.

FAQ
Common questions about merging tax documents
Everything you need to know before combining your tax files.
Upload your tax PDFs using the tool above, drag them into the correct order, then click 'Merge Tax Documents.' Your combined PDF downloads instantly. The whole process takes under 60 seconds regardless of how many files you have.
With RapidTools, yes — because nothing is actually going 'online.' Your files never leave your browser. All PDF processing happens locally using JavaScript with no data ever transmitted to our servers. This is fundamentally different from tools like iLovePDF or Smallpdf, which upload your files to cloud servers. For documents containing SSNs, bank details, and income records, browser-based processing is the only truly safe approach.
Absolutely — this is one of the best use cases. Merging everything into one organized PDF saves your CPA time (which saves you money), ensures nothing gets missed, and makes it easy to track exactly what was shared. Include a cover page listing each document for maximum professionalism.
Any PDF tax document: W-2, 1099-NEC, 1099-INT, 1099-DIV, 1099-R, 1099-K, 1099-MISC, Form 1040, Schedule C, Schedule D, K-1, Form 1098, charitable receipts, medical expense records, business expense logs, and any IRS correspondence.
The IRS accepts PDF uploads for amended returns (1040-X) and certain correspondence through their online portal. Tax software like TurboTax and H&R Block accept merged PDFs for evidence uploads. For mail submissions, documents are typically submitted separately. Your accountant or tax preparer will almost always accept a merged PDF for review.
Yes. This tool works equally well for personal tax returns and self-employed / small business tax packages. Merge your income records, expense receipts, mileage logs, 1099-NECs received, and Schedule C documentation into one organized package for your accountant.
