New experience! Lacerte 2024 introduces a new update method. Background updates is on by default, and automatically checks for and downloads updates. When an update is ready, you'll be asked to close Lacerte to apply it. For more information, see New for 2024: Lacerte Background updates

Updated! The Lacerte Tax Form Availability Tool will be available with Watermark Status, Ready for Print, and Ready for E-file dates. This tool is updated regularly by our development teams and considered the single source of truth for form release dates.
