You are not licensed or permitted under this Agreement to do any of the following: (i) attempt to access any of Intuit's systems, programs, or data that are not made available for public use; (ii) prepare tax returns, schedules or worksheets on a professional or commercial basis (i.e., for a preparer's or other fee); (iii) copy, reproduce, republish, upload, post, transmit, resell, distribute, or re-distribute the material from the Intuit website; (iv) use Full Service for a tax return in Quebec. You understand and agree that Full Service shall be provided in the English language only.
Full Service Prices Subject to Change. Unless otherwise provided, prices are ultimately determined at time of print or file electronically and are subject to change without notice. You should confirm that the pricing for your use of Full Service has not changed, particularly if some time has passed between the date you start your tax return and the date your expert finishes your return and you are ready to electronically file or print and pay for it. The price for your use of Full Service is established at the time you pay for it. Your price will not change once you pay for Full Service.
Storage/Deletion of Your Tax Return File. You will be provided a PDF copy of your tax return. Except to the extent required by applicable law, Intuit has no obligation to store or maintain any tax return files beyond the required period. However, Intuit may be required by law or otherwise to retain certain documents, even if you choose not to complete your tax return through Full Service. Notwithstanding any statement to the contrary, you can delete your tax return file at any time by notifying Intuit, after which it will no longer be available to you.
Availability of Full Service. Intuit is not responsible for the late filing of your tax return due to any discontinuation of, or interruption in, Full Service. You acknowledge that the sole means to ensure that you have an up-to-date record of your tax return file is for you to print and/or download a copy of your tax return file upon becoming a paid user and after making any modifications thereto. Intuit will not be responsible or liable for your failure to do so.
You Are Responsible for the Accuracy of Your Tax Return. All tax advice relating to the preparation of your tax return and the work necessary to prepare that return will be provided by the Tax Return Preparer who will sign your return as the tax preparer and have responsibility for the overall substantive accuracy of calculations in the return. However, you are responsible for providing accurate and truthful data and other information to the Tax Return Preparer and for reviewing your tax return before it is filed to verify its overall completeness and accuracy. You understand and agree that you are ultimately responsible for the accuracy and truthfulness of your tax return(s).
ReFILE Service. ReFILE allows you to make changes to your previously NetFiled tax return for tax years 2019, 2020 and 2021. Additional fees may apply. ReFILE is not available to users who print and mail their return and may not be available in all Provinces.
You cannot use ReFILE to make changes to your personal information on your tax return; instead use My Account to make such changes. You may use ReFILE to make up to nine (9) adjustments per tax year; however, you can make additional requests on paper, using Form T1-ADJ, T1 Adjustment Request, by mailing them to the CRA.
Help and Support. Intuit may use a variety of methods (e.g., in-product, Internet, fax, email, chat and phone) to provide technical support and customer service in connection with your version of the Services. You may choose to allow an Intuit agent to remotely view (only) your computer via the Internet to provide help, where you may need to follow some instructions to enable such viewing. The terms and conditions governing the offering of this support, some of which require the payment of an additional fee, are subject to change as made available by Intuit from time to time.

We may report and share information about your account and your connected device to credit bureaus, consumer reporting agencies, fraud prevention associations and card associations. Late payments, missed payments or other defaults on your account may be reflected in your credit report and consumer report.

You may provide us with your telephone number as part of your customer record or registration or via other method. You understand and agree that the Services may require multiple sources of information about you to confirm your identity and help ensure the security of your personal use of the Services, often referred to as "multi-factor authentication" ("MFA").
