After you file

BTW: You should NEVER delete the software for at least 3 years after the filing date in case something comes up, the IRS audits you, or you need to amend for any reason. You must have the software installed AND the .tax file in order to amend.

 

(With Hard drive storage so cheep these days, there should be no reason to ever delete tax software - I have it going back to 2000 - It does not take that much space to archive.)
