Can I import my tax information from another software into TaxAct?
Yes, TaxAct does offer the capability to import tax information from other software, which can significantly streamline the filing process. To facilitate this, TaxAct typically supports the import of various tax file formats, such as those created by previous tax software providers or the IRS. Users usually have the option to import prior year tax returns, which can be beneficial for maintaining continuity in their tax records.
