Taxpayers whose adjusted gross income was $62,000 or less during 2015 are eligible for at least one, if not more, of the 13 tax software products.
The income limitation is $2,000 higher than last year. People can use Free File software immediately, but e-filed returns will not be transmitted to the IRS until Jan. 19 when the filing season officially begins.
For taxpayers who earned more than $62,000, there are Free File Fillable Forms, the electronic version of IRS paper forms. Free File Fillable Forms will be available on Jan. 19.
Free File is available only at IRS.gov/FreeFile.
The tax filing deadline is April 18. Taxpayers who cannot meet the April 18 filing deadline can also use Free File to file a six-month extension.
