Adding a state to your return in ProConnect Tax
In this article we will go over how to add a state to your client and how to setup a multi-state return for each return type.
Before you start:
- Every year, the IRS releases tax forms on a rolling basis. Forms and schedules can sometimes be delayed and may not be final or ready to file. If you have installed a state and it is not showing in the return, please check the tax form finder link to see if the form has been released.
