QuickBooks Online Accountant Pro Tax carry forward
by Intuit•3• Updated 1 month ago
Carry-forward is a service that lets old client information from past years be used for a new tax return. This saves time and effort for tax preparers. The carry-forward process brings in your personal details, like names and addresses, along with important tax info such as UCC, unused RRSP deductions, and more.
Users can carry forward the previous year’s return or a return prepared using a competitor’s product.
- Select your module in Pro Tax.
- Find the return you want to carry forward.
- Navigate to the View return dropdown in the Action column and select Carry forward.
