Will TurboTax Free Edition allow me to enter 1099G, 1095A, and 1095B forms? I need to be able to enter all three. Thanks!

No, you will need TurboTax Deluxe to file your Form 1099-G

Nothing is really free from Intuit and Turbotax. Its very very greedy. If you make less then $66,000 you can get a free provider from the IRS website.

If you qualify for the IRS FreeFile program there is a separate TurboTax product for this.  It can be found HERE but does require a separate login and password.  

The commercial version of TurboTax is a paid product, with limited free options for the simplest of returns, but the free edition on the commercial website is not intended for taxpayers who would like to use the IRS sponsored FreeFile program.

• In May 2019 ProPublica found that TurboTax lied to taxpayers about its free filing program.
• In June 2019 Gizmodo reported that “a new class action lawsuit against TurboTax maker Intuit claims the tax service breached its agreement with the Internal Revenue Service by intentionally obscuring its free filing service and charging qualifying taxpayers anyway“
• According to the suit, TurboTax violated its agreement with the IRS by separating its free filing page from its primary service as well as by intentionally hiding the service from search engines — and therefore qualifying taxpayers — by altering its code, a discovery unearthed through ongoing investigations into TurboTax’s practices by ProPublica.
• Additionally, TurboTax is accused of using language meant to lead taxpayers to believe that its primary service is free only to later charge them.
