This fresh new looks allows you to access more information without having to scroll.

Viewing and printing returns in Spanish is determined at the return level.

Select the drop down arrow next to the taxpayer’s name and then select Si hablo Espanol?

Select Espanol

The screen will display in Spanish

The forms will also print in Spanish.  There is currently an issue with the Spanish print utilizing the wrong year form.  This will be corrected

The 1040NR/1040NR EZ selection will be made at the point of selecting a Filing Status after the roll out of Taxslayer 2016.   We will be creating detailed training material on return navigation.   You will see this change over the next few weeks as we move through e-file testing with the IRS.

The below screenshot reflects where you will start the return.

What is the purpose of the Message Center?

The message center has two purposes:

(1) A one way communication between TaxSlayer and the sites.  The one way communication allows TaxSlayer to send out important notifications and software tips based on the type of inquiries we are getting through our support staff.

(2) Allow a communication channel within the users/preparers at the site.  Any user will have the ability to communicate with any user within their site via the Message Center.

Note:  Messages posted in the Practice Lab by users are not accessible by TaxSlayer Support.
