There are two ways to file for free with TurboTax. The first, IRS Freefile as delivered by TurboTax, is only open to taxpayers who meet certain qualifications. The other, TurboTax Free Edition, is for taxpayers who have simple returns. If your return requires forms not in Free Edition, then you will be asked to upgrade.

 

If you meet the qualifications, you may be able to use the IRS Freefile as delivered by TurboTax, a free filing service provided by TurboTax in partnership with the IRS.

 

Please see this TurboTax webpage which explains the difference between the IRS program and the TurboTax Free Edition product.

 

If you think you qualify for the IRS Freefile program (see the links), start with this link - this is a separate link from the TurboTax Free edition.

 

As for guidance, TurboTax offers TurboTax Live (which is not free) as a service in which you can contact credentialed tax professionals, show them your return, and ask them questions.

 

Here in the Community (this forum), we cannot see your private tax data, but you will find many TurboTax employees, volunteer Champions (super users), and regular users like you who are willing to answer specific questions that you ask here.
