Client Management Software for ITIN Preparers
ITIN preparers work with clients who are harder to reach, more likely to communicate only via WhatsApp, and more likely to need guidance through every step of document collection. Generic CRM tools assume clients have email and speak English. That assumption fails every day in an ITIN practice.
Conecta is a CRM and client management platform for tax offices — not tax preparation software. It handles client communication (SMS, WhatsApp, email), document collection, automated reminders, e-signatures, appointment booking, and workflow automation. It works alongside whatever filing software you already use.

From the field: how a itin preparers used Conecta
An ITIN preparer in Fresno with 240 clients was spending 3–4 hours per week calling clients to remind them to bring their documents. Most calls went to voicemail. After setting up Conecta's WhatsApp reminders, client response improved dramatically — because a WhatsApp message from a known number gets read and responded to. Phone calls from unknown numbers do not.
The 3 problems itin preparers have right now
- Clients are unreachable by phone or email — WhatsApp is the only channel that actually works
- Document collection requires multiple follow-ups; clients often arrive without what they need
- No-shows are frequent because clients don't respond to English-language appointment reminders
- Intake process doesn't explain what documents are needed in terms clients understand
How Conecta solves each
WhatsApp-first document collection
Send the organizer via WhatsApp. Clients respond with photos of their documents. Everything goes into their file — no portal login, no app download, no barrier for clients who aren't comfortable with apps.
Automated reminders until it's done
Set document reminders to go out every 48 hours until everything is submitted. No manual tracking of who has responded and who hasn't — the system handles it.
Bilingual intake organizer in plain language
The client organizer explains every document request in plain Spanish — what it is, where to find it, why you need it. Fewer confused clients means fewer calls answering the same questions repeatedly.
How itin preparers actually use Conecta
This is not practice management software for tracking returns. It is a client management platform for tracking clients — from first contact through document collection, reminders, signatures, and reviews. Here is how the workflow runs in a typical itin preparers practice:
- Send the client organizer via SMS or WhatsApp — in English or Spanish. Clients don't need to download an app. The link opens in their phone's browser.
- Client uploads documents through the bilingual portal — everything lands in one place. Document collection for tax clients that actually works.
- Automated reminders go out every 48 hours if documents haven't arrived. No manual tracking. No follow-up calls. Tax office automation handles it.
- After the return is filed, a review request sends automatically — building your reputation while you focus on the next client.

Questions from itin preparers
Does Conecta work for offices that communicate entirely in Spanish?
Yes. Every client-facing element in Conecta — the organizer, client portal, appointment reminders, document requests, e-signature requests, and review requests — runs in Spanish when the client's language preference is set to Spanish. You don't configure a Spanish version separately; you set the language and the system handles everything.
Can clients upload documents from their phone without downloading an app?
Yes. Clients who receive a WhatsApp link tap it and take photos with their phone's camera — no app download, no account creation, no portal login required. For clients with limited digital experience, this is often the only workflow that actually gets documents collected.
How do I track which ITIN clients have submitted their documents?
Conecta shows document collection status for every client in one pipeline view. You see at a glance who has submitted all documents, who has partially submitted, and who hasn't responded. The system automatically sends reminders to those who haven't submitted — you only intervene manually for exceptional cases.
