WARREN’S WAR ON TURBOTAX
Senator Elizabeth Warren has criticized TurboTax for pushing taxpayers towards paid products when they are eligible for a free filing service. The Democrat from Massachusetts has long been an advocate for simpler tax filing procedures.
THE DETAILS
– TurboTax’s parent company, Intuit, along with other tax preparation firms, has a deal with the IRS to offer free filing to certain taxpayers, but a ProPublica investigation revealed these companies make it difficult for consumers to access this service.
– Warren, alongside Senators Richard Blumenthal and Bernie Sanders, has written to the IRS Commissioner urging him to implement a direct filing system.
