FEDERAL TAX E-File for FREE - No income limit
 

Used this last year with good results. Searched but didn't find that anyone else had posted.

TaxAct Free [taxact.com]

It's true! FREE to prepare, FREE to print, FREE to e-file - no income or age restrictions. Get the fastest tax refund possible with free e-file. Handles simple AND complex tax returns — supports 1040, 1040A, & 1040EZ, and includes all e-fileable IRS forms to handle all filing statuses & life situations.

They charge $14.95 to add state filing. But for us Nevadans (no state income tax), this is all we need!

Thx for sharing

Does it walk you through the deductions or just the basic version is free ?

TIA .

i have used it before and its pretty good plus its free... it walks you through the deduction both standard and itemize

what about the guys at express 1040 dot com?

I've used TaxAct free for federal the last 3 years and state for free at the Illinois Dept. of Revenue website.
TaxAct is very easy, you can choose step-by-step or fill the form(s) in line-by-line.
Not sure why someone with an uncomplicated tax situation would pay to have their taxes done.

Does it allow to enter interest/dividend income from saving accounts?

^yes, interest from a savings account is common & simple

i cant finish this tax thing.. this is the first year im filing and it keeps saying my employers state id is wrong.. im COPYING exactly what it says from my w2. doesnt even have the required taxact online numbers

I've used tax act before but I've been using turbo tax federal free edition for the last few years with great satisfaction.

Maybe the W2 is wrong. I would verify it with my employer.

Looks like both offline version and online version are FREE and FREE Fed e-file.

Just a little OT. If you are Military you can use militaryonesource.com It's free federal taxes through H&R block. I've used it for years. :nod:

If you want to do state e-filing also, actually TaxACT 2012 Ultimate Bundle (included fed+state efile) $11.90 online version is cheaper then.

Yes, it walks you through EVERYTHING, if you want it to. It even walks you through each w2 or you can choose to input by yourself. Very easy, been using it for several years.
