30 Years of Free Tax Filing
While new tax startups come and go, we've been here since 1996 — quietly filing returns, protecting data, and keeping federal filing free for every American.
Our Story
MyFreeTaxReturn.com was built on a simple idea: every American should be able to file their federal tax return for free — no income limits, no surprise fees at checkout, and no upgrade tiers.
Powered by IRS-authorized e-filing technology that's been trusted since 1996, we give every taxpayer access to the same professional-grade system used to process millions of returns — with free federal filing and $12.99 state returns.
Who We Are
We're a US-based, family-owned company. No venture capital investors. No pressure to monetize your data or push you into paid tiers. Just a small team focused on one thing: making tax filing free and accessible. We'll be here next tax season, and the one after that.
How We Keep It Free
We don't take venture capital. We don't sell your data. We keep federal filing free by charging a flat $12.99 for optional state returns. That's the entire business model — no upsells, no premium tiers, no investor pressure to extract more from you. The transparency is the point.
Your Data Is Safe
Your information is encrypted the moment you enter it. We never sell or share your data with advertisers — it's used for one thing only: filing your return with the IRS. Learn more about how we protect your data.
