TurboTax Free Edition Online

Yes, if you meet the following qualifications for FREE edition.

TurboTax free edition is for simple tax returns (1040EZ/1040A) with standard deductions. If your return is more complex you will not be able to use the free edition.

You can use the free edition if you:

Made less than $100,000
Don't own a home or rental property
Didn't sell investments
Don't own a business or have 1099-MISC income
Don't have any major medical expenses

Does this answer still apply to this question, one year later?

No.

If you have a 1099-G you will be forced to buy deluxe for $60. Speaking from experience.

Yes, if you are poor and unlucky enough to have been unemployed, Intuit will greedily charge you a fee for being low income. Use the IRS website to find a cheaper provider. Only use Intuit if it is really free, which is rare.

Just call the customer service number and ask nicely and they will issue you a service code making it free.

Interesting. They charged me 120$ and I made only about 26 27k this year. Most on unemployment too so this is their BS criteria.. somehow I fell under their requirements but yet they gave me no option to but to file through them thru deluxe and then upgraded the deluxe federal cost of 60 dollars ( funny because there was a promo of 5 $ off that didnt register and and then somehow charged me 50$ for state. Which is more understandable than federal as I fell under free file with that.) Used turbo tax for 10 years. The year of pandemic was when they charged me 80$ and now 120. The two hardest Never again.
