Based on feedback from the field and concerns that too many volunteers have the ability to “Mark a return complete”, we will be removing the ability to mark a return complete for the following two security templates
These two security templates will still allow the volunteer to mark a return ready to review.
Note: Remember, a return cannot be marked to review after it has been marked complete.
The answers entered on a return for TY 2018, TY2017, TY2016, and TY2015 will be eliminated from our system on December 30th.
If you need to run any additional reports for Custom Questions, you will need to run these prior to December 30th.
The reports will run, but the data for the answers entered into the tax return will not be on the report
Yes, the list of answers will still be available when you create a new prior year return or edit an existing prior year return.
No, we will by-pass the “is required” feature for questions associated with prior year returns.
We will post additional information throughout the next few months as reminders and if we get additional questions.

TaxSlayer sent a balance due email out to a group of email addresses in error this morning, followed by an apology email letting the recipient know it was sent in error. If you received this email, your email address was entered in our Commercial CRM system when a demo was requested during year one of the contract award. We apologize for the confusion.

As sites begin to prepare training for the upcoming filing season, we wanted to put together a cumulative document depicting program enhancements introduced since May of 2019. We hope this will help in your training material preparations. All enhancements have already been included in each Release Notes blog post (and cumulative Release Notes PDF), but we wanted to also have a dedicated document specific to enhancements.
Beginning with the next deployment, a cumulative enhancement document will be available for all to view in each Release Notes blog post moving forward. The below link is already included in our Release Notes posts, but now includes the 2019 TaxSlayer Enhancement document. Go ahead and check it out!
