UFile data?

My Niece recently passed away and I was able to retrieve her tax files from her personal computer. Unfortunately she used the uFile software to file her taxes. Can Turbo Tax convert her uFile file and if so how? Thank you.

Thanks for posting your question, and I'm so sorry for the loss of your niece. Confirmed via TurboTax's Canadian community: TurboTax unfortunately cannot import or convert UFile files directly.

"Is Turbo Tax Home & Business compatible with UFile? (import not supported)"

You'd need to open her file in UFile itself to view or print her return, then manually enter any needed details into TurboTax if you're preparing a return on her behalf. I know that's an extra step at a difficult time, wishing you and your family comfort through this.

If you need further assistance with this we would reach out to TurboTax Canada Support.

Thank you very much Katie. I suspected I needed to do what you described, fortunately she had saved a copy as a .pdf so I’ll just go ahead and enter the data manually as you described. I was looking for a quick way of importing the data but I guess that won’t be happening.

Also thank you for your kind words, she was my favourite Niece and we had a very special bond throughout her shortened life. I miss her dearly.
