John,
Every day, I’m fighting to make life more affordable for you and
your families — from
cutting middle-class taxes and tripling the Child Tax Credit to
launching the state’s first-ever inflation refund.
But when
tax time comes, too many New Yorkers are forced to pay additional fees
just to file their taxes. It shakes out to $260 a year on
average.
We’re changing that.
This tax
season, millions of New Yorkers can file their taxes for free with
Direct File!
If
your 2024 wages were less than $200,000 — or $250,000 if you’re filing
a joint return — you may qualify to use Direct File to e-file your
federal and New York State taxes for free.
New
Yorkers have enough to worry about when it comes to their finances.
Extra costs when filing their taxes shouldn’t be one of
them.
Direct File is part of my mission to put more money back
in your pockets, and I’m going to keep fighting to make life more
affordable for all New Yorkers.
Ever Upward,
Gov. Kathy Hochul
