Free Online Tax Preparation from TurboTax
|
 |
 |
Eligible taxpayers in our community can NOW electronically prepare and file their tax returns for FREE by visiting the Intuit Tax Freedom Project website, www.taxfreedom.com.
Each year, Intuit donates TurboTax® OnlineSM, the #1 rated, best selling tax preparation product year after year, to hard-working Americans and their families. TurboTax helps eliminate filing errors and reminds taxpayers to take credits and deductions for which they qualify - such as the Earned Income Credit and Child Tax Credit - putting much needed income in the pockets of lower-income and deserving taxpayers. Since 1998, Intuit has donated more than 13 million returns.
To qualify for a free federal return for tax year 2006, taxpayers must begin their return at www.taxfreedom.com and meet one of the following requirements:
· Earned $27,000 Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) or less in 2006; OR
· Qualify for the Earned Income Credit (EIC); OR
· Served Active Military Duty - includes Reservists and National Guard - with a 2006 Form W-2 from the military and earned an AGI of $52,000 or less.
Taxpayers also qualify for a free state return if they are eligible for a free federal return, and are filing in one of the following twenty-one Free File Alliance states: Alabama, Arkansas, Arizona, Georgia, Idaho, Iowa, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Mississippi, Montana, New York, North Dakota, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont, and West Virginia.
Taxpayers filing in other states who are eligible for a free federal return may choose to only print or e-file their federal return (and not the state) or they may pay the state return filing fee of $9.95 and print or e-file both their federal and state returns. As you know, e-filing is the quickest way to get your refund.
