It's that time of year again to file your income taxes. I've always gone to H&R block to file my income taxes because it's so easy, but I know they are a rip off. This year I want to file my BC income taxes myself so I don't have to pay H&R block to do it since my income taxes are so straight forward. I know this might sound like a dumb question, but how would I go about doing my own income taxes for free? |

My kids (simple taxes) have used the online free TurboTax version with good results for about 4-5 years now.

Hi Dark Moon,
I also recommend turbo tax.
I went to HR Block this year to do my taxes and walked out when they tried to charge me $350... because my return was "complicated". It only took the woman 20 minutes to do state and federal... and I had to point out her errors many times. The people there are no experts.
Sorry for the rant...

I've used http://www.taxact.com for YEARS now.
They aren't totally free. I cost my a total of $18 to file state and Fed.
The AWESOME part, is they retain your info so when you file next year, it pulls everything in.
When you have a straightforward tax situation, you can be done in a half hour... file electronically, and if you get a refund, have your $$ direct deposited in a few days.
You can also go to http://www.irs.gov and get a list of all the online sites that are approved. They will tell you which ones are free and such.
Good luck!
Happy to say, I'm done with mine this year... woo hoo! |
