Only if you qualify. Being a student does not automatically qualify you. Only if you have a very simple return.
There are 2 different Free versions. Turbo Tax Free Edition and the IRS Free File website. If you don't qualify for the Free File website you might be able to use Turbo Tax Free Edition. Although the Free Edition is limited in other ways. The IRS Free File website won't open until later.
In order to use the IRS Free File program, you have to start it at a special website. Click on Sign in at the top right. It may let you continue your return so you don't have to start over.
