Collect all client signatures in one proposal this busy season with Additional Signatures
Copied to clipboard.
As many firms gear up for the busiest time of the year, one theme comes up again and again: too many signatures, too many emails, too many tools, and far too much admin time being wasted.
Whether it’s tax consent forms like 7216s, disclosures, NDAs, or Power of Attorney documents, firms have long been forced to manage these signatures outside their engagement letter and proposal workflow. That means chasing clients, juggling PDFs, cross-checking spreadsheets, and losing time that no one can spare in busy season.
Today, we’re excited to announce an early holiday present for firms everywhere:
Ignition’s Additional Document Signatures are now available for Pro, Pro+ and Enterprise customers.
This powerful enhancement allows your clients to sign every required document in one seamless flow - right alongside your proposal and engagement letter. And they can even enter payment information upfront, ensuring streamlined onboarding and improved cash flow.
All your signatures in one streamlined workflow
With Additional Document Signatures, firms can now attach any supporting PDF, including compliance forms, consents, disclosures, NDAs, POAs, and, of course, the ever-important 7216s, through the proposal workflow. Clients are guided through a single, intuitive signing experience that ensures nothing gets missed and every signature is collected upfront.
What this means for your firm:
- No more chasing clients for 7216s or other critical forms
- No more disconnected tools like DocuSign or email attachments
- No more bottlenecks in your onboarding workflow
- No delays to starting work due to missing signatures
- Better cash flow by collecting payment details at the same time
It’s faster, simpler, and provides your clients with a polished, professional experience that sets the tone for the rest of the engagement.
Built for busy season and beyond
This release comes at the perfect time. With tax season approaching, every hour saved is a win. Administrative burden skyrockets as firms try to get hundreds (or thousands) of clients onboarded quickly, while also maintaining compliance with regulations like IRS 7216.
By consolidating all signatures into one flow, Ignition removes one of the biggest sources of friction during onboarding.
As one of our customers, Justin Kurn, Chief Revenue Officer from Dark Horse, put it:
"Being able to include additional document signatures - like tax form 7216 or power of attorney - directly in the engagement process is life-changing, eliminating separate workflows and saving significant time."

This is the kind of impact our team designed this feature to deliver.
Why we built additional document signatures
Ignition’s SVP of Product Management, Tammy Hahn, shared why this capability became a priority for the product team:
"We’re constantly looking for ways to help firms streamline and automate their workflows. Adding Additional Document Signatures was a natural next step in our mission to simplify client onboarding, reduce administrative burden, and help firms improve cash flow. By consolidating all signatures into one intuitive experience, we’re giving firms the tools they need to work smarter - especially during their busiest season."

This feature also marks a meaningful advancement in Ignition’s end-to-end engagement experience. Not only can firms now bring every signature into one workflow, but they can also use reusable templates, define required vs. optional signatures, and securely store everything in one place - eliminating guesswork, rework, and unnecessary follow-ups.
Designed to work across regions and regulations
Whether you’re a U.S. tax firm needing to collect 7216s, an Australian firm securing ASIC-related Authority to Act forms, or a U.K. business preparing Companies House submissions, this enhancement flexes to your regional requirements.
Some of the most common documents firms can now automate within Ignition include:
United States
- 7216 consents
- IRS privacy disclosures
- Power of Attorney
Australia
- Authority to Act (ATO/ASIC)
- Lodgement consents
