How do I file my taxes online to receive by mail for free?

The TurboTax Free online edition is for very simple tax returns that do not require any other form or schedule other than the Form 1040.  If your tax data requires entry on any other form or schedule then you must upgrade to the Deluxe edition or higher.

 

Go to this TurboTax website for the Free online edition - https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/online/free-edition.jsp

It can be.   TurboTax Free Edition (and TurboTax Live Basic) are intended for taxpayers who file Form 1040 with limited credits. Roughly 37% of taxpayers qualify.

 

If we detect that your tax situation requires expanded coverage, like deductions for owning a home, unemployment income, or self-employment income, we'll prompt you to upgrade.
