Under the new tax law, there are several new schedules.  You cannot use Free if you require any of those schedules.

Intuit and Turbotax and very greedy and like to bait and switch by charging more money. They lure bait people in wanting to IRS free file and then limit income at $36,000 or switch to $60. They bait and lure people in with higher incomes to regular free file and then charge $60 for a 1099. Both of unethical, immoral and dishonest practices. Luckily there are a bunch truly free ways to file. Find the list from the IRS website. This bait and switch is called Dark Patterns. They are tricks used in websites and apps that make you buy or sign up for things that you didn't mean to.
