Could Filing Your Taxes Finally Be Free and Easy?

Could Filing Your Taxes Finally Be Free and Easy?

The federal government created the Free File Alliance with the online tax service industry back in the early 2000s. Essentially, the government agreed not to create its own free tax-filing platform if the online tax services agreed to offer free filing to those who earn less than $73,000. In 2015, H&R Block left the Free File Alliance, followed by Intuit, the makers of TurboTax, in 2016.
