The Quicken Tax Freedom Project provides online tax preparation and electronic filing free of charge to all taxpayers filing Form 1040EZ, as well as to individuals and families with annual adjusted gross incomes of $20,000 or less. The free program applies to the preparation and filing of both state and federal individual income tax returns. According to the most recent statistics from the Internal Revenue Service, approximately 55 million Americans will be eligible for the Quicken Tax Freedom Project during the 1999 tax year.

According to the IRS, taxpayers who file their returns electronically usually receive their refunds up to two times faster than those who file by mail. In fact, when using direct deposit, taxpayers will receive any refund due within as little as seven business days. In addition, taxpayers using the Quicken Tax Freedom Project program can automatically identify the deductions for which they are qualified - while also reducing arithmetic and other errors. Electronically prepared and filed returns have a significantly lower error rate than manually prepared returns.

Intuit is offering online tax preparation and electronic filing services at no charge to eligible families and individuals through Quicken TurboTax for the Websm and TurboTax EZsm, personal tax preparation products that enable taxpayers to prepare and file their tax returns via the Internet quickly and securely. Quicken TurboTax for the Websm and TurboTax EZsm are easy to use and require no special tax expertise.
