TurboTax Free Edition is free as long as it is a simple return that files a 1040 with no additional schedules or upgrades. Please see below for more information and instructions on how to remove unwanted charges or add-ons.

Schedule 3 is not free.

You might be able to use the Free File (formally called Freedom Edition) for incomes under $34,000 and supports all states and most forms.

The Free File is part of the IRS Free File alliance and is totally separate from TurboTax website.

You can also access the Free File tax alliance programs via the IRS website.
