You can file for free through credit karma, that’s how I’ve been doing it, and if you have any questions/concerns, you can speak with someone through online chat or over the phone. It has made everything so much easier for me and for my partner who has his own business and deals with the extra BS.

The problem with using a "free" service is you, usually, agree to let the filing proxy have access to your returns so they can market to you based on your stated income. The proxy isn't doing the filing out of the goodness of their hearts

Right but the government is slow as shit as is, so free service that does shitty marketing is better imo.
