Security of your personal information

StudioTax is the most secure option to prepare and file your return. StudioTax is a Windows/Mac installable program and NOT an online application. Unlike online applications where you have to trust a private third party for the security of your valuable personal information, StudioTax gives you full control over your security. StudioTax installs on your computer's local hard drive, saves your returns on your computer's local hard drive, and absolutely NO information, personal or otherwise, leaves your computer.
StudioTax is scanned by 66 different antivirus tools and found to be clean. This blog also confirms the above statement that your personal information is safe when using Studiotax.

More about StudioTax

StudioTax Business Model

Our business model is similar to that of a street performer. You can use and enjoy our software and later decide if the experience was worth it and you can afford a donation.
However, based on many users’ feedback, you should be wary of recent free offerings from big commercial organizations. To use our previous analogy, they are big circuses that send their clowns out to the street to attract unsuspecting customers to their tents and pressure them in paying for their overpriced shows.

Who can use StudioTax?

StudioTax is made available for individuals who prepare their own tax returns or returns for a small number of relatives and friends free of charge.
It is important to note that, as per CRA regulations, tax professionals CANNOT use NETFILE software to file tax returns of their clients. They must use EFILE certified software.

Is StudioTax right for you?

Every year 100's of thousands of taxpayers use StudioTax to prepare and file their returns. And more taxpayers are converting to StudioTax every year.

StudioTax covers the overwhelming range of personal income tax scenarios from simple tax returns to more involved returns for self-employed, returns with rental income and everything in between.

Q. How about if I need more than 20 returns?
A. The 20 returns limit is a CRA requirement. If you are a tax preparer, then get an unlimited number of returns by using Studiotax Enterprise.
