Fuck all corpo scum! Intuit, TurboTax and H&R Block can all fuck right off! Corporate lobbying motherfuckers can burn in hell.
I filed for free with H&R Block.
…And Now you can file for free without them
And your financial information need never leave the IRS and be put in the hands of a private company.
a private company would never sell this data
Using this ended being a massive pain in the ass for me. I could file the federal taxes online, but after I submitted it and attempted to file my state taxes online it said I couldn’t since I lived in NYC and made more than 75k/yr and I’d have to mail them in since it’s impossible to file only your state taxes online due to the IRS’ requirements.
I haven’t used my printer in years so it was a hassle just to print out 5 pages and mail them half way across the country. It also delayed getting my refund by about a month.
Sounds like a state problem. It works great in my state. It will get better in time.
A city problem to be more exact. Since I lived in NYC and made more than 75k in a year I couldn’t file online, using the site the IRS directed me to (I’ve been doing it myself with TurboTax for the past 7 years, and paying for it). Due to the IRS’ own rules, you can’t file just your state tax returns online, since they’re largely the same as the federal taxes. So both are actually at fault.
I live in Florida now so I don’t have to pay state taxes, so next year’s will be a breeze.
you can’t file just your state tax returns online
Then either I’m misunderstanding you, or I’m filing my taxes wrong lol
This is a month late, but what I meant was there is no way to do them completely separately since the state largely uses your federal return. When you submit your state taxes it checks to see if your federal return was already accepted (usually at that point you haven’t actually submitted your federal taxes, or at least the IRS hasn’t entered them in as submitted), if it shows as being accepted already their system is set up in a way that won’t allow a second submission online.
