How to calculate your 2025 refund

Step 1

Set up a free account

It only takes a few seconds to set up a FreeTaxUSA account. If you've filed with us before, just sign in to your account.

Step 2

Start a new 2025 return

Enter your tax information to the best of your knowledge. Estimate the areas of your tax return where needed. As you make progress, the taxes you owe or the refund you can expect to receive will be calculated and displayed on each page.

Step 3

Complete your tax return without filing

Finish your estimated tax return. Once you finish, you'll have your estimated income, tax liability, credits, and deductions. Remember not to e-file or mail your estimated tax return.

When you're ready to file your taxes, sign in to your account, update the areas that need corrections, and e-file your tax return with the IRS.
