I have been using Turbo tax for a few years now, and it has always been free, I gave them 2 stars because for my 2024 tax year I had to pay $78.00 but didn't know until the end, this was disappointing, but they made the tax preparation extremely easy, but some banks prepare your taxes totally free.
I like Turbo tax and have used it for years. They do have a habit of throwing in extra charges and 'wanting' to 'send' your refund to you using a different card every year. IMO it is better to wait 3 weeks and go with direct payment to your bank acct.
