| Free File Friday is back as UFile
builds on its commitment to making tax filing easier
for all Canadians
February 2, 2009 - Montreal, Quebec - Dr Tax Software,
the maker of UFile.ca and UFile for Windows, is pleased
to announce that Friday, February 27th marks the return
of Free File Friday, which provides Canadians age
60 and over the opportunity to prepare and file their
tax returns online, at no charge, using UFile.ca.
This special offer does not require that the tax
return be completed or filed on that particular day.
If you are 60 years of age or older and would like
to take advantage of Free File Friday, simply go to
www.UFile.ca on February 27th and open a new or existing
tax file. One of the benefits of UFile.ca is that
participants can prepare their tax return with no
obligation, and can print or NETFILE whenever they
are ready.
"Free File Friday is just another example of
our commitment to making tax filing easier for all
Canadians," says Malcolm Campbell, Vice President
and General Manager of Dr Tax Software Inc.. "UFile
will also be used by the Canadian Revenue Agency's
(CRA) Community Volunteers Income Tax Program (CVITP),
to assist people who are unable or do not know how
to complete their income tax and benefit returns."
Canadians with incomes under $20,000 can also use
UFile.ca to file for free at any time during the year.
UFile's calculation engine has been used to prepare
millions of tax returns for all provinces and territories.
Those who choose to participate in Free File Friday
can take advantage of UFile's powerful pension income
splitting optimization, part of the MaxBack refund
analyzer that saves money by finding every possible
deduction and transfer to minimize your taxes and
maximize your refund. Last tax season, over 46 per
cent of web software users chose UFile.ca to NETFILE
their tax returns.
Available online since 2000, UFile.ca was one of
the first online tax products certified for NETFILE
by the CRA. Owned and operated by Canadians, UFile
can prepare tax returns for all provinces and is available
in French and English.
UFile is also available in retail stores, starting
at only $19.99. The online version, UFile.ca, starts
at $15.95. All UFile products can prepare ALL KINDS
OF TAX RETURNS.
