You have two options to prepare and file your individual income taxes for free, if you qualify. One is the Direct File program. The other is the Free File program.
For the Free File program, the State of Idaho has partnered with the IRS and certain tax software companies to allow qualifying taxpayers to prepare their federal and Idaho individual income tax returns for free. They can also e-file both returns for free.
Check below to see if you qualify. Then, click a provider to view and use the software.
