If you have a very simple return, you can use the Free Edition.

 

Or—-Use this IRS site for other ways to file for free.  There are 8  free software versions available from the IRS Free File site

Simple tax returns: If you have a simple tax return, you can file with TurboTax Free Edition, TurboTax Live Assisted Basic, or TurboTax Live Full Service Basic. A simple tax return is one that's filed using IRS Form 1040 only, without having to attach any forms or schedules. Only certain taxpayers are eligible.

  • W-2 income
  • Limited interest and dividend income reported on a 1099-INT or 1099-DIV
  • Hobby, personal property rental or personal item sales income reported on Form 1099-K
  • IRS standard deduction
  • Earned Income Tax Credit (EIC)
  • Child tax credits
  • Student loan interest deduction

Situations not covered:

  • Itemized deductions
  • Unemployment income reported on a 1099-G
  • Business or 1099-NEC income
  • Stock sales
  • Rental property income
  • Credits, deductions and income reported on other forms or schedules (for example, income related to crypto investments)
