Dear TaxTime USA, Inc. Customer,
- This update fixes the printed amount for Computer costs for tax year 2017. Previously the 2017 amount was not included in the “Prior” amount on the printed return; this update now properly includes the 2017 amount. The printed “Prior” amount includes amounts entered in the input screen for Computers for: 2017, 2016, 2015 and Prior.
- There is an updates to Assessor Address information for the city of Linden in Genesee County and the city of Bad Axe in Huron County. If you allow the Assessor Auto Update to run upon program startup it will automatically update these or you can go to Setup - Assessor database and update the city there.
City of Linden in Genesee County the correct city and zip code is: Linden, 48451
City of Bad Axe in Huron County the correct zip code is: 48413
If you have used this assessing unit on a return you will need to go into the Assessor tab and re-select it.
