I’m from Brazil and a little confused. What I found is that people in the US pay for a software that simplify the process of filing taxes. Free options would be more difficult or inconvenient. But I also read it is already possible to file taxes for free, as people are eligible, which I can’t wrap my head around.
Here, as fast as I can remember, the only software comes from the government, from the time of floppy disks (provided free of charge) and Java. You can always pay a company to do that for you, but it’s so simple for the majority that we are basically consenting with the use or validating the information they already had.
Only in a few select shit democracies can a company push back on a government entity trying to do something so basic as to provide decent tax filling mechanisms
no shit and 99% of the time their software is just doing data entry but they want any "free" software to be such that you have to input it in manually. its such a scam in this day and age.
