Free File Program Overview

Taxpayers who made $73,000 or less in 2022 qualify for free online tax preparation services through the IRS Free File program. The program is made possible through a public-private partnership between the IRS and the Free File Alliance---a coalition of leading tax preparation software companies. Visit the IRS's Free File page to get started, or use the IRS's Free File Program Lookup Tool to quickly find a qualifying Free File company based on your specific situation.

Note also that many of the participating Free File companies offer free preparation services separate from the Free File program, but these services are not under the same consumer-friendly marketing constraints.

Lastly, if you made more than $73,000, you can still prepare and e-file your taxes for free using the IRS's Free Fillable Forms, but you will not have access to the tax preparation software that is available under the Free File program.
