The Free File Alliance is a free federal tax preparation and electronic filing program for eligible taxpayers developed through a public-private partnership between the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and the Free File Alliance LLC, a group of private sector tax software companies.
Free File has quickly become an important tool for the American taxpayer. It is particularly important for helping moderate and lower income Americans prepare and electronically file their returns. Free File allows all taxpayers with an Adjusted Gross Income of $52,000 or less to prepare and e-file their federal tax returns for free.
Free File Alliance Goals
