States - Adding or Removing Return

Based on what you enter in the State of Residence section of the Basic Info Q&A, you will be prompted to add a specific state program. After you complete the Federal Q&A section, TaxAct will prompt you to order and install that state program. At that time, you can choose a different or additional state by clicking Add State.
