What is a .TAX15 file?
A .TAX15 file is a type of document that is made using the 2015 version of a program called Intuit TurboTax. This program helps people prepare their taxes. The .TAX15 file contains important personal information that the user has put into the program. It also includes the forms needed for both federal and state taxes.
To open a .TAX15 file, you need to use the Intuit TurboTax software. Specifically, you can use the versions of TurboTax that were made for the years 2015 and 2016. These versions are available for computers that run Windows or Mac operating systems. It's interesting to note that TurboTax usually saves tax return files with a different extension, .TAX2015, instead of .TAX15. So, you might not see .TAX15 files very often. But if you do have a .TAX15 file, you can open it with TurboTax, and then save it as a .TAX2015 file if you need to.
Once you have your tax return file open in TurboTax, you have a couple of options for what to do next. You can send your tax return directly to the IRS and your state's tax department over the internet, a process known as "e-filing." E-filing is usually free for federal tax returns, but there might be a fee to e-file your state tax return. Alternatively, if you prefer, you can print out your tax return and mail it in the traditional way.
