Tax Packages

With Drake Tax Pro there are no separate modules to buy – all federal and state packages are included for individual and business returns.


Common Features

  • Familiar features - Data entry and program features are essentially the same across all tax packages.
  • E-filing is included, for any return that can be e-filed. You can transmit federal and related state together or separately (if necessary and allowed by the state).
  • Returns can be stored as PDFs, so you can email the return to your client. Use Drake Documents to keep your electronic documents organized, helping you transition to a paperless office.


Federal Packages

With Drake, you can prepare any of the following return types.

  • Items from Schedule K are automatically carried to the Schedule K-1 and partner basis worksheets, and prorated among partners based on ownership percentage. When interests are transferred, you can indicate the new percentage. Amounts can be overridden as need. You can also track adjusted basis for each partner.
