FAQs

What tax forms and schedules are supported?

What's the difference between filing online and filing with a tax pro?
Online, you upload documents and we prepare your return remotely at the lowest starting price. With a tax pro, you work with a dedicated professional in person, from home or by drop-off.
Can I switch to National Tax Block and bring my past returns?
Yes. Upload your prior-year return and we'll carry forward the details — and review it for free.
How long does it take?
Most online returns are prepared within a few business days of receiving your documents, faster during off-peak times.
