TaxACT Express™, available for Android and iOS, includes everything consumers need to securely file federal returns easy, fast and free from a smartphone.
"TaxACT Express expands consumer access to free federal tax filing, empowering you to start and finish on a smartphone, tablet or computer," said TaxACT President JoAnn Kintzel. "TaxACT Express has a unique set of features and services that give you the freedom to do all or some of your taxes on a smartphone for free."
Easy, fast filing
The streamlined Q&A interview covers basic information, income, deductions and credits. Express users can start and stop at any time, then pick up right where they left off. Interview questions can be bookmarked, allowing users to quickly and easily return to specific questions.
TaxACT Express supports all of the following tax forms and situations:
- Wages and salary (W-2)
- Dependents and dependent credits
- Interest income (1099-INT)
- Dividend income (1099-DIV)
- Education credits and deductions (1098-E, 1098-T)

Taxpayers with additional situations can finish and file with TaxACT Online using a browser or with the tablet app that support all tax situations and all e-fileable forms.
TaxACT Express includes a one-of-a-kind Examiner Series that provides a detailed summary of the topics and amounts that determine the user's total income, deduction, credit and tax amounts.
The app also features a dynamic dashboard with fast navigation tools and key information about the user's returns, including federal and state refunds or amounts owed that update as users answer questions. Users can tap on their refund or liability amounts at any time to view a summary of their return.
After users complete the interview, TaxACT Alerts checks returns for potential errors and missing information. All individual federal returns are backed by TaxACT's maximum refund, accuracy and satisfaction guarantees.
To prepare, print and e-file a state return in TaxACT Express is just $7.99*, a fraction of the cost of other smartphone apps. Payment isn't required until users print or e-file.
