IRS plans to make its free tax filing program permanent

The Internal Revenue Service said Thursday that it will continue and expand its free tax filing program in 2025.

Texas was one of the states that could participate in the trial. But it is Texas, so I’m not holding my breath that they will continue being cool with it. Fingers crossed though.
As a Texan, there is no state income tax here. Texas can’t say shit.
