Quickbooks

Intuit is phasing out QuickBooks Desktop in favor of QuickBooks Online, pushing users toward a subscription model. But if you have an older version—like QuickBooks Desktop 2020—you might not need to panic just yet.

I recently used TurboTax tax filing service, and while their system doesn’t allow you to upload QuickBooks data files directly, there’s a simple workaround. You can generate your Income & Expense reports within QuickBooks and then upload them to TurboTax as PDFs. This means you can still use your old software for tax prep without needing to switch to QuickBooks Online.  This same process would work with other accounting firms, including H&R Block, etc.
