I can’t wait to use it, but it seems it doesn’t support overseas income yet and I live full-time outside of the US (and yes we legally have to file taxes every year even if we won’t owe anything).

Yes it has become increasingly difficult for me to file taxes abroad. For my 2021 taxes I had to print out and physically mail my return since for some reason the electronic filing failed. For my 2022 taxes every company I used to file taxes from in the past refused to take my non-American credit card. I couldn’t even access the free stuff, presumably due to some IP blocking.

Hopefully eventually the IRS will solve this and everyone who needs to file taxes can easily do it for free.

I’ve been using H&R block, but every year shit breaks and I have to fight with them. Latest was that my NRA wife broke all their validations (despite it properly flagging her an NRA)
