Do I qualify for electronic filing?

Most taxpayers qualify for electronic filing. Some of the rare situations in which you may not qualify include:

  1. You do not currently live in the United States.
  2. You earned income from a state in which you do not live.
  3. You want to e-file your state return, but not your federal return and your resident state is Arkansas, or Oklahoma.
  4. Your filing status is Married Filing Separately and you live in a state that is subject to community property rules.
  5. Your status is Married Filing Jointly, only one spouse earned income, and you are claiming Child Care Credit. (All three must apply to disqualify you.)
  6. You received a waiver from the IRS.

If you do not qualify, you can still use our program to prepare your return. When it is finished, the program will notify you that it must be printed and mailed.
