Now that there’s about a month left to file your income tax returns, I’m proud to announce the TurboTax Premier Online 2011 giveaway.
You know, to this day, I haven’t been able to find a better price than free.
Before entering the giveaway, please consider whether you already qualify for free income tax return preparation and e-filing. There are governmental initiatives in place that may allow you to use other tax prep software at no cost.
Those with an adjusted gross income (AGI) of $57,000 or less are most likely to find a free option. You might even be allowed to file your state tax return for free, so I highly recommend you check out www.IRS.gov/freefile to see if you qualify.
Here’s a fun fact: According to the Internal Revenue Service’s web site, approximately 70% of U.S. taxpayers have an AGI of $57,000 or less.
For taxpayers with annual incomes in excess of $57,000, there’s still hope of using free tax preparation software for the completion and e-file of your federal (not state) income tax return. TurboTax Online Federal Free Addition, TaxACT Free Edition, and H&R Block At Home Free Edition all feature the following benefits to the taxpayer at no cost:
- No income restrictions
- Preparation of forms 1040, 1040A, 1040EZ and certain related schedules (schedules C, E, F, and K-1 are, generally, excluded)
- Free e-file for federal income tax returns ONLY. (State income tax return preparation is available for an additional fee.)
If you earned $57,000 or less in 2011, you’ll qualify to file your federal AND state income taxes online through MyFreeTaxes.com. This site also features a handy tool that’ll help you find a local organization that provides in person tax preparation at no cost.
If you’re one of the “unlucky” souls who has to pay for federal and/or state tax prep or just can’t bother to determine otherwise,
There are four ways to enter. PLEASE USE THE FORM BELOW.

- Subscribe to You Have More Than You Think via RSS or Email. Then, leave a comment below letting me know you subscribed. (10 points)
This giveaway is open to U.S. residents only.
No entries will be accepted after 11:59 PM EST on Wednesday, March 21, 2012. If you’re one of the winners, you’ll have 48 hours to respond after being notified before an alternate is chosen.
Best of luck!!!
