There's a user on the official forum who only has the 2008 install CD so he can install it but he can't update it because ATX no longer has them posted on their website. I don't mean you should download the latest update file, although if you install from CD and apply the update that will work. What I mean is to download the full installation file: For 2016, go here: https://support.atxinc.com/download/taxprogram.aspx?taxyear=2016 When you're on the prior year downloads page (https://support.atxinc.com/download/prioryear.aspx), click on the links that say '20xx Tax Program' to find the install files. And put a reminder on your calendar each fall to do this for the current year. The current year program is here: https://support.atxinc.com/download/formdevelopmentstatus.aspx and you click on the link that says 'ATX Tax Program'. Or you can edit the 2016 URL and change the 6 to a 7. https://support.atxinc.com/download/taxprogram.aspx?taxyear=2017 You can see the version of the install file, after you've downloaded it, by viewing properties (right click on file, choose Properties) and going to the Details tab. I actually download the latest full install file every time there's a program update, in case I ever need to reinstall it, to save having to run the updates.

The install file, on their website, will contain all the current updates. I used to keep all the update files, now I just archive the install files about every 6 months.

A good idea regardless of what software is used. I should think that all vendors have those download pages (I know that Drake does).

He shouldn’t have any mortgage boot as long as the new debt is more than the old debt. There isn’t any depreciation recapture if the new property has a higher Basis than the old property.

While refunds older than 3 years are forfeit, on occasion they will apply those amounts to later-year taxes due. It doesn't hurt to ask.
