Illinois Governor Pritzker says Illinois will participate in the IRS Direct File service starting January 27th. The service allows taxpayers to file their 2024 taxes electronically.
Direct File is free to use on mobile phones, laptops, tablets, and desktops. The website offers help in English and Spanish and a checklist to make filing taxes easier.
The program also connects taxpayers to Illinois’ free online tax filing system, MyTax Illinois.
To check eligibility or to use Direct File, go to the IRS website.
