I haven't used TurboTax recently, but I just received a check from my state's government saying that they've settled with Intuit over charging customers tax return services that should have been free.

This angers me greatly at how scummy TurboTax and Intuit have become over the years. For alternatives, I've been using FreeTaxUSA but I'm sure there are others that people can recommend.

FreeTaxUSA for me as well. Very easy to use and it's free for federal. Hopefully they don't end up the same way eventually.

I've used them for many years. Like you said, free for federal and I think $15 if you want them to file state/local which I am happy to pay. I know I can do it free online but it's a cheap convenience.

There is usually a 10% off promo code floating around to get it from $15 to $13.50. But hey, $1.50 is $1.50

There's been a big price jump in their add-ons. Deluxe is $7.99 and audit defense is $19.99 (used to be included in deluxe, which was even a bit less)

My only gripe with it after trying it this year is that it makes you go through the first few steps of filing for state, without iniially asking you if you were planning on paying the fee for state filing.
