Credit Karma Tax supports the most-common federal tax forms and schedules. You can check out the complete list of forms we support here.
But we can’t do everything just yet. These are some forms and situations that Credit Karma Tax does not support this year.
What if I can’t file my state return with Credit Karma Tax?
If we don’t support your specific state situation, keep in mind that you can still file your Federal return with Credit Karma Tax.

What it’s for |
Part-year state returns |
You, or your spouse if married filing jointly, lived in a state for only part of the year. |
Multiple state returns |
