TurboTax resumes tax filing services after fraud suspicion

Monday 9 February 2015 13:14 CET | News

Tax preparation company TurboTax has lifted its suspension on processing state tax returns following reports of suspicious activity.

TurboTax’s announcement to suspend followed a move by Minnesota’s Department of Revenue to stop accepting tax returns submitted using TurboTax due to potentially fraudulent activity.

The filings resumed, and the company, which is owned by Intuit, revealed that it shall continue to work with the states as they build their own anti-fraud capabilities.

The Minnesota Department of Revenue said it is still accepting returns filed with Intuit professional preparer products, which include Lacerte, Intuit Tax Online, and ProSeries.
