    The use cases covered by this were already covered by the free tier on services like TurboTax. They’re not going to lose a dime.

      I suspect Intuit is making money off of the information it gets when people file taxes through TurboTax.

      Free Federal filing is also a big advertisement for their state filing options and audit support.

        Are they making enough to justify offering this service though? It’s not like they did it willingly
