Track tax preparation software and free filing in the United States. Report only confirmed, source-backed items from the last 7 days: price changes, mid-season increases, edition changes and new upsells at TurboTax, H&R Block, FreeTaxUSA, TaxAct, TaxSlayer, Cash App Taxes, OLT and Jackson Hewitt online; IRS Free File partner lists and income limits; IRS Direct File state participation, eligibility and opening dates; VITA, TCE and AARP Tax-Aide site openings and appointment availability; refund advance loan terms, fees and eligibility; software bugs, outages and e-file rejection waves confirmed by the vendor or the IRS; FTC, state attorney general and class action settlements over free-filing claims with refund processes; and IRS alerts about preparer fraud and ghost preparers. Prefer vendor pricing pages, IRS.gov, the FTC, state agencies and established tax reporting; ignore affiliate rankings without prices and unverified complaints. Put the product or program first in the title with the price and the date. Use high severity for a price increase within 14 days, a Direct File expansion, or a settlement with a claim deadline. Return no more than 6 findings. Push each as a finding with a title, a two-sentence summary, sections for what changed, who qualifies, what to do, the deadline, and the source link. If nothing qualifies, push nothing and submit the run receipt.
