Yes, they have edited their comment since my response.

Even still, Direct File is a joke. Available in only 12 states, and excludes anyone with business income, "gig economy" income, itemization, retirement/savings credit, and childcare credits.

It also does not cover state filing either... so you get to experience the joy of doing your taxes twice.

It simply does not compare with FreeTaxUSA, or even paid offerings.

It’s a pilot. Nothing big can change except via incremental steps.

It's the federal tax return - limiting it to 12 states makes zero sense...
