Free-file using the IRS program
Ways to use efile:
- use a computer and file your own tax returns
- use a VITA program to help low moderate income taxpayers
- use the professionals for a fee
E-filing your taxes is an easy way to conduct your tax return instead of preparing all the written paper forms that is necessary to process your taxes. Written forms are long, time consuming, and come with a time limit to get your tax forms mailed to the Internal Revenue. Using e-file, you can practically wait until the very last minute to process your return since software is available night or day.
All taxes are due on April 15th – without asking for an extension on your taxes and then an extension form will need to be processed by the due date, but penalties and interest can occur.
