Free Federal Tax Filing — and Free State Filing in Many Cases — Available ahead of the official opening of the tax filing season at IRS.gov/FreeFile

WASHINGTON, Jan. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Taxpayers can get a head start on preparing their 2025 federal tax returns as the IRS Free File program is now available ahead of the official start of the tax filing season, with free filing available at IRS.gov/FreeFile.

Taxpayers with 2025 adjusted gross income (AGI) of $89,000 or less can file their federal tax returns at no cost using secure, industry-leading tax software. In many cases, free state return filing is also available.

“IRS Free File is available to taxpayers with small businesses, gig work, or rental homes, provided their adjusted gross income is $89,000 or below,” said Tim Hugo, Executive Director of the Free File Alliance. “There’s a common misconception that Free File only supports very simple returns. In reality, many taxpayers with more complicated returns can still file for free using the guided, step-by-step software offered by our members.”

IRS.gov/FreeFile is the official and only location where taxpayers can access IRS Free File and ensure a truly free federal filing experience. More than 70% of taxpayers qualify to use IRS Free File. Taxpayers can access IRS Free File on a computer, tablet, or smartphone by visiting IRS.gov/FreeFile, or by using the IRS2Go mobile app.

IRS Free File operates through a long-standing public-private partnership between the IRS and the Free File Alliance, a nonprofit coalition of tax software companies that provide no-cost access to commercial tax preparation tools for eligible taxpayers. In a 2025 survey of IRS Free File users, more than 98% of respondents said they would use the program again. Visit www.freefilealliance.org to learn more.

Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC

The post Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Franklin Templeton CEO Jenny Johnson has weighed in on whether the Federal Reserve should make a 25 basis points (bps) Fed rate cut or 50 bps cut. This comes ahead of the Fed decision today at today’s FOMC meeting, with the market pricing in a 25 bps cut.

She added that retail sales are up and that consumers are still spending, despite inflation being sticky at 3%, which makes a case for why the FOMC should opt against a 50-basis-point Fed rate cut. In line with this, the Franklin Templeton CEO said that she would go with a 25 bps rate cut if she were Jerome Powell. She remarked that the Fed still has the October and December FOMC meetings to make further cuts if the incoming data warrants it. Johnson also asserted that the data show a robust economy. However, she noted that there can’t be an argument for no Fed rate cut since Powell already signaled at Jackson Hole that they were likely to lower interest rates at this meeting due to concerns over a weakening labor market. Notably, her comment comes as experts argue for both sides on why the Fed should make a 25 bps cut or…
