Release 2022.01b now available.


Initial installation for the year must be from the first Partnership Edition (1065) program we provide you for the current tax season. Once you have completed the installation, you can use these on-line updates for subsequent changes throughout the tax season and thereafter.

TIP: Before executing these downloads, exit Tax Preparer by closing the Tax Preparer Control Panel. If you do not, you will encounter an error message indicating that HSPrnTax.EXE is being used by another process, and the update will not be completed.

The downloads on this page are only for Partnership Edition for Form 1065 returns. Downloads for Tax Preparer for Form 1040 returns are found on the Main Downloads page. Downloads for the California Supplement for Form 540 returns are found on the California Downloads page.

Changes in recent releases

(updated 8/17/2022)

Release 2022.01b differs from Release 2022.01a as follows:

  •   Graphic Schedule K-1 printouts revised:
    •   Damaged graphic file repaired for those who ever updated their Tax Preparer 1040 software AFTER their initial installation of their Partnership Edition 1065 software. For Tax Preparer 1040 updates that preceded 2022.01r, the 1040 update itself would replace the correct Schedule K-1 with an obsolete draft, making amounts printed in the last column to appear in the wrong positions in relation to the graphic form.
    •   Aesthetics improved by shortening the vertical line separator in the last column, which formerly started 2/3-rds of an inch too high.

Release 2022.01a differs from Release 2022.01 as follows:

  •   Form 3468 added for providing information to partners for claiming the Investment Credit, including credits for rehabilitating historic structures and and various energy credits.
  •   Form 8822-B added (Premium Level only) for reporting a Change of Address or Responsible Party--Business, including a change in physical location of the business and a change in its mailing address.
