Intuit SnapTax Arrives in Canada

intuit [1]If a picture’s worth a thousand words, a snapshot of your tax return information may be worth much more. The maker of top-selling tax software TurboTax [2] wants you to file your taxes in a snapshot, using just a T4 slip and an iPhone or iPod touch. Canadians can download and try SnapTax for free [3] on iTunes. After entering information, it costs $9.99 to submit their return through NETFILE.

SnapTax, the innovative point-and-shoot tax preparation app from Intuit takes only minutes to prepare and file simple tax returns. Users can finish tax chores in record time, bringing that hoped-for refund much closer to their bank account.

“Nothing comes close to SnapTax. You take a picture, review the forms and file. Just like TurboTax, the calculations are guaranteed accurate,” said Jeff Cates, president of Intuit Canada [1]. “We know Canadians love their iPhones and iPod touches, and know they’re using them for just about everything these days. With SnapTax that now includes getting their maximum tax refund!”

Point, Tap, File. Done.

Filing taxes with SnapTax is as easy as point, tap and file.

The only thing left is deciding how to spend your refund – or sending a payment.

Just like TurboTax, SnapTax protects privacy by encrypting transactions with the same Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology used by Canadian banks. And because no tax information is stored on your iPhone or iPod touch, your information is safe and sound if you misplace or lose your device.
