H&R Block has free file for federal taxes.

NOTHING IS FREE. They aren’t doing this out of the kindness of their hearts, it’s a sucker trap and they will be making money from this ruse every time a sucker falls for that con.

I work for H&R Block during tax season.

The reason they offer free file for 1040EX (up until Feb 15) is to get people in the door.

Two reasons, get them in and you often find things they missed and can get them bigger refunds and most filing 1040EZ won’t always, develop regular customers.

I hate the tax system and big government. I regard working at Block an opportunity to help people legally avoid feeding the beast and to educate them on the pitfall;s of the system. MANY people are unaware of the many exemptions, credits etc they can take of and if you don’t know, Turbo Tax is not going to find them for you.

I have only been doing this for a few years in retirement and am amazed at the quality of professionals at Block, the real service they provide and how much they really care about the people they serve.

I personally have managed to get many thousands back from the beast for people who paid way to much in past years with amended returns. Check out H&R Blocks FREE “Second Look”.

You are mistaken. I work in a private library and have seen people file online, free.
