Exporting Your DeductionPro Entries to TaxCut

You can export your charitable donation and expense entries to TaxCut. DeductionPro does not currently export your Medical and Other Deduction expenses; you must manually enter this information into TaxCut. However, you can view or print the IRS Schedule A report and use it as a guide when entering the information.

Filing a Joint Return

If you plan on filing a joint return using TaxCut, you should create one account that combines information for both parties of the joint return. This means that you and your spouse should enter your charitable donations together in one DeductionPro account. We recommend this because you can import only one set of data into TaxCut. Each time you import data into TaxCut, it replaces the data that you previously imported.

To export your DeductionPro entries to TaxCut:

  1. Click the Review & Finish tab to display the Export to TaxCut screen, and then click Next.

    This screen displays a list of your donations sorted by type of donation (cash, noncash, or expense), and then by charity.

  2. Make sure that you have entered an address for each charity listed, and then click Next.

  3. On the Ready to Export screen, click Export to TaxCut.

    DeductionPro displays a screen informing you that your entries have been successfully exported.

To import your data into TaxCut:

  1. Open TaxCut and start creating your return.

  2. When you get to the "Charitable Donations" section under Deductions, follow the on-screen instructions to complete the import process.

To include your Medical and Other Deductions entries on the tax return you prepare with TaxCut:

  1. View or print the IRS Schedule A report.

  2. Review lines 1, 21, 22, and 27 of the report.

  3. Add the data to your Schedule A manually.
