Why do I need license when the software is free?

TaxTron 2014 software does not require a license for returns with total income of $31,000 or less or for full-time students (4 months or more duration as indicated on your T2202A form). If your income is over $31,000 and you are not a full-time student, you will require a license to print or NETFILE your tax return.

When asked to enter a license during the activation of the software, you can leave it blank if you qualify for the free offer.

Note: Software from previous years have no free offerings and require a license to be purchased – regardless of income level or full-time studies.
