.t08 File Extension

Developer: H&R Block

File type: TaxCut 2008 Tax Return

You're here because you have a file that has a file extension ending in .t08. Files with the file extension .t08 can only be launched by certain applications. It's possible that .t08 files are data files rather than documents or media, which means they're not meant to be viewed at all.

what is a .t08 file?

Many people enjoy the speed and ease at which they can submit their tax returns online and avoid postal delays which are frequent (and costly) at this time of year. This file format is used by software called TaxCut (rebranded to H&R Block At Home for the 2009 tax year) developed by H&R Block e-solutions. This can be accessed online or directly from a DVD. This software enables US based citizens to prepare their federal and state tax return forms based on a series of questions. The software will then verify the data input. When the forms have been validated then can subsequently be submitted online or printed should you wish to post them instead (although this should be avoided due to the aforementioned reasons). The number at the end of the filename states the year for which the return is created. Returns generated with TaxCut must be opened with the version of TaxCut which was used to create them. So the file extension in question here is specifically for returns made for the year 2008.

how to open a .t08 file?

Launch a .t08 file, or any other file on your PC, by double-clicking it. If your file associations are set up correctly, the application that's meant to open your .t08 file will open it. It's possible you may need to download or purchase the correct application. It's also possible that you have the correct application on your PC, but .t08 files aren't yet associated with it. In this case, when you try to open a .t08 file, you can tell Windows which application is the correct one for that file. From then on, opening a .t08 file will open the correct application.

a word of warning

Be careful not to rename the extension on .t08 files, or any other files. This will not change the file type. Only special conversion software can change a file from one file type to another.

what is a file extension?

A file extension is the set of three or four characters at the end of a filename; in this case, .t08. File extensions tell you what type of file it is, and tell Windows what programs can open it. Windows often associates a default program to each file extension, so that when you double-click the file, the program launches automatically. When that program is no longer on your PC, you can sometimes get an error when you try to open the associated file.
