🔍 If you need access to prior years you did not purchase
For customers who wish to access prior years that they did not purchase, we allow you to do this via a generic EFIN and Registration Code.
You have access to print the forms, but not efile, since you are not using your live EFIN.
You can also access other modules that were not part of your package for that tax year if you use the generic EFIN and Registration Code.
❌ E-file a prior year return you do not have access to
If you wish to e-file a prior year return that you do not have access to, contact your sales consultant.
