Direct File: A New Tax Filing Program
The IRS has introduced IRS Direct File, a new program available in 12 pilot states, enabling taxpayers to file their returns directly with the IRS online for free. With an emphasis on simplicity rather than gamification, the software offers a professional and straightforward interface resembling TurboTax but without the financial incentives to increase refunds prematurely. The program, part of the Inflation Reduction Act, aims to streamline tax filing for over 19 million taxpayers, especially those in states like California and New York.
