I'm a 19 year old student and to avoid big fees from a professional, I decided to use FreeTaxUSA, and it was so simple and informative I now can do my own taxes!

I filed my kids' taxes--really appreciated this money-saving option for these simple returns. One of my kids is a college student and I loved that FreeTaxUSA was robust enough to catch the education credit she was eligible for while still saving me on cost.

I became disenchanted with other online tax filing services and needed something simple, free and capable of giving me the maximum refund. As a student I'm happy that I was able to maximize my refund to help with my education expenses!

ALWAYS free for everything I need! Work multiple jobs, have tuition, investments, and contract work. Can finish my taxes in less than 30 minutes and get accepted in under 2 hours. I always recommend to my friends!

I'm a college student and this was great and simple to use. The program really helped walk you through filing and is thousands of times simpler than attempting to manually fill out the PDF the IRS gives you. Will be using again next year!

I'm a college student and relatively new to the tax filing process so I appreciate having the benefits of the knowledge and security offered by FreeTaxUSA. And it's free!

Making a college girl's tax return easy. With four short minimum paying jobs while attending school, you made my tax filing very easy. One job was just one day pay but needed to be filed.

This is a really great platform for simple tax filing. I've used it through college, and on to married life filing jointly. Very user-friendly, and you can't beat free!

I did tax filing for the first time as an international student using FreeTaxUSA. It was easy, quick and cheap. An awesome experience indeed!
