alliance with BNA Tax & Accounting, a leading provider of news,
analysis, and practice tools for tax and accounting professionals in

“Researching new or updated tax laws can feel like an insurmountable
task when there are hundreds to thousands of tax returns to complete and
promptly file,” said Jill Ward, senior vice president and general
manager of the Intuit Accounting Professionals Division. “Providing
time-saving methods for tax professionals to get reliable research can
help them be much more productive during their busy season. The easier
we can make it for them to get the information they need, the better.”
How Intuit ProLine Tax Research Works
Intuit
ProLine Tax Research is a comprehensive Web-based research tool with
content that is automatically and frequently updated by BNA. Because
Lacerte and ProSeries input screens and forms are mapped to relevant
answers to key research questions, Intuit ProLine Tax Research helps
increase tax professionals’ productivity and helps them better advise
their clients to obtain the best possible tax outcomes.
In addition to researching the latest tax laws, rules and regulations
for their clients, practitioners now have the ability to capture a
full-page view of the research results and attach it to the Lacerte
professional tax return or ProSeries
professional tax return.
