E-file.com Promo Codes — 60% Off

Yes. The Free Federal Basic Software is available at no cost to filers who meet all of the following criteria:

• Taxable income under $100,000
• Filing status of single or married filing jointly
• Income from wages, salary, unemployment, fellowship grants, scholarships (taxable), or tips
• No dependent deductions claimed

If your situation is more complex — self-employment income, IRA adjustments, or most tax credits — you'll likely need a paid tier.

The standard state filing fee is $32.99, covering any state form required regardless of complexity. Applying a state-specific coupon code at checkout reduces this to $22.49, saving over $10 on your state return.

Federal and state coupon codes operate independently, so you may be able to apply one code to reduce your federal software fee and a separate code to reduce the state filing fee on the same order. Confirm stacking eligibility at checkout before completing your purchase.

No. The new-user discount — 20% off — applies exclusively to the federal software fee. It does not reduce the state filing fee or any third-party charges such as the Refund Transfer fee. First-time filers should use a separate state coupon code to save on state filing.

The File & Go option lets you deduct your E-file.com software fees from your anticipated tax refund via a Refund Transfer (Green Dot Bank, Member FDIC). A $39.99 Refund Transfer service fee applies. Paying by debit or credit card at checkout carries no additional fee from E-file.com.

Applying a promo code at E-file.com takes three quick steps:

1. Reach the checkout page and locate the Products & Services section, which shows your federal and state filing fees.
2. Click the small arrow or hat icon next to the price. A link reading "Have a Promo Code?" will appear — click it, enter your code exactly as provided with no extra spaces, and click Apply.
3. Confirm the correct discount now appears in your order total before proceeding to payment.

Federal codes reduce the federal software fee only; state codes reduce the state filing fee only.

E-file.com's refund policy has two key rules to keep in mind:

• Refund requests must be submitted within 90 days of payment via E-file.com's online support system.
• Purchases are non-refundable once you select to print the return, view the PDF, or file it.

IRS rejection alone does not qualify for a refund — you can correct and retransmit your return free of charge if the IRS rejects it.

E-file.com prices its tax preparation software at up to 57% less than comparable TurboTax plans. The Premium Plus E-file tier, for example, is available at a significantly lower price point than TurboTax's Premium offering, particularly when a federal discount code is applied at checkout.

Yes. IRS audit assistance is included as a built-in feature of the Premium Plus E-file plan at no additional cost. Premium subscribers also receive full telephone support alongside online support throughout the tax filing process.

E-file.com distributes coupon codes directly on its website and through third-party platforms including Groupon. Checking Groupon before purchasing is a reliable way to find current discount codes for federal software fees and state filing fees, which can be applied independently at checkout.
