Online Free Tax Return

04.09.13 - An update of what is available online with automatic filing with NETFILE.
I have used various services the past few years and found them easy to use and some are FREE.

StudioTax is a FREE service. Like the others, you cannot import past returns, as they only manage past returns for returning customers.
I am using it this year and will advise of any concerns.

WebTax4U is a FREE service this year, for taxpayers without outside income (self-employed, rental, etc).

Ufile has an online version ($16 you, $9 spouse) and a Windows version ($20 for up to 8 returns). Here is a comparison of their services. Not free.

There are a few more but cost is higher.






03.22.10 - I cannot recall anything I do NOT like doing more than taxes!


Each of the last few years (now that we are retired), I look into the various online alternatives and always seem to find a "better alternative".


This year, it is a very easy process with myTaxExpress which cost $6.99 (taxes included!) for one return or $13.99 for up to 10 returns.


The last few years, I used WebTax4u ($12.99 for one return and $5.99 for each additional - taxes not included) and was pleased at how easy taxes have become.  


If you have found something/better cheaper, pls comment.


Of course, I will wait until the last minute to submit, as we always seem to have to pay ... a good thing?!
