How does the return counter work?

by TurboTax• Updated 1 month ago

The return counter advances when you do one of the following for the first time:

  • Print an individual form that contains your tax information (including your T1 General).
  • Print a return.
  • File a return using NETFILE.
  • File a return using Netfile Québec.

The return counter doesn't advance if you:

  • Print a second copy of the same return.
  • Print a return that you already filed with NETFILE.
  • NETFILE a return that you already printed.
  1. From the toolbar, select View.
  2. Select Summary, then Return Counter Summary. A list of returns is displayed.
  3. The number of returns you've used and the number still available are both displayed.
  4. Select Close to close the window.
