That said, there are a number of free filing services endorsed by the IRS that you can use for free. These can be great if you have relatively simple finances. List is available from the IRS here: https://www.irs.gov/filing/free-file-do-your-federal-taxes-for-free [irs.gov]
Always use caution when providing your financial information to an online service provider. It is recommended to use only trusted sources, such as IRS.gov, for these types of services.
Note also that this does not address your state filing requirements. Check with your state for local options, as some states do offer free services.
NY made it illegal to charge for e-filing because it obviously takes more work for them to process paper. I'm shocked they're the only ones.
That said, many states offer free e-file directly on their own department of revenue website. Here is a blog post with a list of those states:

last year i used TT prem, and because i wanted to compare, also tried tax slayer and tax act, since they're free. tax slayer and tax act had differences due to them not handling some things correctly.
i think if you just work and have no investments, tax slayer and tax act are probably a great choice.
there is a separate question of whether deluxe is as good as premier, prem is advertised as better for stocks/investments, but some say that deluxe does it just as good. unless someone actually buys both and compares, i dont know how we'd ever know.
for me the extra cost of prem is justified because it claims to be better for stocks and id happily lose the extra money to avoid an audit.
Intuit is the reason we still have to pay so much for tax software.
