Well, one catch is that we don't allow that domain name in posts because of past spam issues.

Check out https://www.reddit.com/r/personalfinance/comments/7r0tvv/tax_filing_software_megathread_a_comprehensive/ for suggestions (including some free and less expensive options).

I want to know why freetax.com is free. Is there another subreddit that would be better suited for this question? I don't think a comment on a 2 month old post is going to elicit many helpful responses

I didn't notice any other sites that offer the same thing, but if they did, I would ask the same question

You may be able to ask on r/tax. (I'm not sure if they got banned there too.)

I wasn't suggesting you ask on that thread, I was suggesting that you could find some alternatives.

Ah, yeah, probably will go with freetaxusa, freetax seems pretty sketchy. Thank you
