Tax season is upon us yet again! But before you head out to purchase the latest tax software, did you know that you might be able to get it for free? In fact, if your Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) was $58,000 or less in 2010, the Internal Revenue Service wants to help you prepare and e-file your federal tax return completely for free this year. Here's how it works.
Through a partnership with Free File Alliance LLC, the IRS is offering those that qualify not only free electronic filing but also free online software to help you prepare your federal income tax returns. For more detailed information, visit Freefile.IRS.gov today to learn about the program and join over 30 million other taxpayers who have already used Free File to file their returns safely and securely online.
This is really a great deal for a lot of Americans, since about 70% of all taxpayers have an AGI of $58,000 or less. So ditch the old calculator and countless piles of paper this tax season and let the IRS' Free File do the heavy lifting for you.
