I know it's no longer tax season (or well, I guess since the deadline was extended to July 15th, maybe it still is tax season), but I wanted to comment here on why the tax software was trying to charge me money. panama18 was kind enough to provide a link, but I wasn't in a place to click on it when I saw the message and so when I googled it later on, and Turbo Tax said it would charge me, I ended up moving on to Credit Karma.
I watched a show the other day that pointed out that the major tax companies wrote it into their code so the free version (for people making under $69,000) would NOT show up in a Google search. They WANTED you to go to the site where you have to pay money to file taxes.
Anyway, the point is, if you make below $69,000 you CAN file taxes for free, but make sure you go to the IRS free file page and click on the links from there. Or click on the link above from panama.
