You may qualify for free tax filing if you fall within these situations

(BPT) - For many people, filing their taxes is something they put off and don't understand. In fact, according to a recent TurboTax survey, two in five Americans don't fully understand what's in the new tax bill and more than one-third worry they'll be worse off. Despite apprehension surrounding the new tax bill, filers could see up to a $1,000 refund increase or lower balance due, so there is no reason to delay filing.*

Plus, filing your taxes doesn't have to be complicated and you may be able to file your taxes absolutely free when you use TurboTax Free Edition. About 37% of filers qualify. If you have a simple tax situation, meaning you file Form 1040 only (no schedules, except EITC, CTC, student loan interest, and the new schedule 1A) you can qualify. While some services create the perception that they are free, they don't actually provide completely free federal and state returns, creating confusion for taxpayers. TurboTax Free Edition is absolutely free federal and free state DIY filing for those who qualify.
