How to save and print your tax estimate from the Tax Planner

You can use the Tax Planner to estimate your federal tax liability based on income, deductions, and payments recorded in your file. You can print the estimate or save it as a PDF for your records or to share with a tax professional. Quicken automatically saves your tax data when you close the Tax Planner.

The Tax Planner opens with your most recently saved data. If you've created multiple scenarios, you can switch between them before printing.
