After completing the Federal Q&A, the next step is to address the State Q&A. You'll only need to answer a few state-specific questions for your state return.

TaxAct® State Editions are typically available starting in January each year. For anticipated release dates, please refer to our State Program Release Dates FAQ.

To prepare your State Return:

1. From within your TaxAct return, click on State, then select Add State. (On smaller devices, click the menu icon in the top left corner and then select State.)
2. In the State return for dropdown, select your state. You may need to scroll down to find it.
3. Continue with the interview process to enter your state-specific information.

To prepare multiple state returns, repeat the steps to choose another state from the dropdown and continue the interview process.
