I’ve posted elsewhere more specifically about the evils of TurboTax (and all things Intuit), and have suggested ways of doing your own accounting without software (namely, getting free help from government agencies like the SBA).
In this post I am happy to tell you that I have found a truly free online tax alternative.

FreeTaxUSA is great for a lot of reasons.
But for me one of the most refreshing was that unlike turbotax it tells you that there is no Florida state tax (how turbotax doesn’t automatically do this is a mystery I have complained about before)
I mean, really free…
That’s right, really really free. Not just fake free and then hit you with necessary upgrades like the other guys…
Really, really, really free. Even for self-employed business owners!!
This is so good it makes me want to cry tears of joy.
