🆕 New Features
👥 Team Management
The all-new Team Management Page lets firm admins:
- Add and invite team members

- Manage access across clients and internal firm settings
This gives firms greater control and visibility over who can do what across the platform.
🏢 Firm Settings Management
Firms can now directly manage:
- White Label Settings – Customize the branding experience for clients.
- Approval Workflow Settings – Define how and when clients must approve scheduled payments initiated by firm users.
Everything is centrally located for easier setup and ongoing adjustments.
👀 New Client Preview
We've added a Client Preview feature, allowing firms to:
- View the client dashboard exactly as the client sees it.
- Confirm configuration, payment schedules, and permissions.
Simplify client onboarding and support.
🌎 California Tax Payment Support (Franchise Tax Board)
Remitian now supports California state tax payments to the Franchise Tax Board (FTB):
- 🏢 For Corporations:
- Form 100 – Corporation Income Tax Return
- Form 100S – S Corporation Return
- Form 100ES – Estimated Tax for Corporations
- 🙋 For Individuals:
- Form 540-ES – Estimated Tax for Individuals
🧾 IRS Personal Payments – Identity Verification Added
To ensure compliance and reduce risk, IRS personal payments now include a required identity verification step:
Before submitting a 1040-ES or other personal federal payment, the client must provide:
- Date of Birth
- Filing Status (e.g., Single, Married Filing Jointly)
- Mailing Address on Last Year's Tax Return
This information is validated against IRS records to authorize the payment. It adds a layer of protection for both clients and firms.
🔧 Additional Fixes & Improvements
- Table refresh bugs resolved — data updates now reflect immediately after edits
- Scheduling for firm users no longer requires a bank account at the time of draft
- Help Center added to the main navigation menu
- Payment Schedule table now sortable by Tax Account
This release strengthens Remitian's firm-grade workflows, expands support for U.S. tax jurisdictions, and increases trust with identity-verified federal personal payments.
