[02:01] DaemonFC And that deduction is usually worth at least several hundred dollars. [02:01] DaemonFC So using the EZ form can cost you $50-60 even as a low wage worker.

[02:21] DaemonFC Its main appeal would be if you just want to hit some buttons and submit your tax return and not think about it again. [02:21] DaemonFC But it moves a lot of the common deductions into the premium tiers, so you can't free file if you're doing things like taking the retirement savers credit.

[02:23] DaemonFC So I disagree that doing your own tax returns is a bad idea. [02:23] DaemonFC Nobody has more skin in the game than you are. [02:24] DaemonFC You're more likely to research IRS guidelines if you think a credit or deduction applies to you, and you're probably more hesitant to claim an egregious deduction if you know the IRS will punish you for it.
