Federal/State Online E-file Software
for Tax Year 2012

Updated 2/21/2012

ATTENTION

Below are links to various Web sites where you can file your federal and state income tax returns. All of these will allow you to file your federal return. Some of these, however, require you to file your federal return, while others allow a state-only filing.

Personal software available on CD used for filing your federal and state returns can also be purchased at retail outlets. If you prefer to have your tax preparation software reside on your personal computer, be sure that the software supports Nebraska returns before you purchase it.

Products listed below are in alphabetical order. The Department does not endorse any software, recommend one software product over another, or monitor software products for continuous availability and state support. It is possible that, even if the software is approved, the product or company may not be ready to support filing Nebraska returns. If you encounter any problems with product availability or state support, contact the software company, or choose another product.
