I wish this show hadn't been cancelled.

Given the popularity of it, I can't help but wonder if this is one of the many reasons why (aka, they pissed off too many of the big powerful folks).

The most official site is https://www.irs.gov/filing/free-file-do-your-federal-taxes-f....

For some reason, the TurboTax version of FreeFile is now limited to below $33000 AGI. It wasn't last year. The FreeFile from other companies has the limit of $72000, which is what I thought the law said it has to be. I am not sure how that is possible, but I'm sure it took some extensive lawyering and lobbying by Intuit.

Shows up as $39k to me? It was limited to $36k last year, which wasn't much better. http://web.archive.org/web/20200415230846/https://apps.irs.g...

Perhaps the agreement is that only some software provider has to be available, not necessarily every software provider.

This is what I used this year after watching the show and it worked great. I recommend this link to all my friends now. It also seems like they keep it up to date which is nice.
