O IRS expandirá o programa gratuito de declaração de impostos para todos os 50 estados: o que você precisa saber

Tax season 2024 ended on April 15 (unless you filed an extension or live in these states with later deadlines due to natural disasters), and the IRS has deemed the first year of its new free-filing software Direct File a success. On Thursday, the Treasury Department and the IRS announced the new program will become permanent and all 50 states and Washington, DC, will be invited to participate for the 2025 tax-filing season.

The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 mandated that the IRS investigate the cost and feasibility of creating and running its own free online tax filing system. After reporting its findings to Congress in May 2023, the agency then began developing the free software. On Jan. 29, 2024, the Direct File system went live for preselected taxpayers, and on Feb. 21 the IRS opened the test program to new participants before briefly closing it. On March 12, the program reopened to the public. More than 140,000 people submitted accepted tax returns through the system before it closed on April 15.
