PHOENIX — This year's Tax Day is Tuesday, April 18, 2023, but it's not too early to get a jumpstart on tax filings. Certain websites are already offering early bird discounts on tax software, according to Kristin McGrath, an editor at RetailMeNot.
“If you're struggling to think of where to file, start looking at those online tax softwares,” McGrath said. “We expect an average discount of around 40% for online tax software.”
A roundup from McGrath shows discounts from websites like TaxSlayer, H&R Block, TaxAct, and TurboTax. Accessing the discounts may require setting up a free RetailMeNot account.
To file federal and state taxes for free, check out Cash App Taxes, previously known as Credit Karma Tax. Using the software requires downloading the Cash App, but the website boasts “it won’t cost you a penny to file your taxes.”
