Quick answer: TaxSlayer charges at filing time, not as a subscription. If you're seeing charges, you either filed or signed up for an add-on. Log in at taxslayer.com → My Account to review. To delete your account, contact support at 1-706-922-6741.
TaxSlayer Pricing Tiers
- Simply Free ($0): W-2 income, standard deduction, limited credits — truly free
- Classic ($22.95): All forms, all deductions, all credits — covers most taxpayers
- Premium ($42.95): Classic + priority support + audit assistance
- Self-Employed ($52.95): 1099, Schedule C, business expenses
- State returns: $39.95 each (not included in any tier)
TaxSlayer is consistently the cheapest full-featured tax software. Classic at $23 covers what TurboTax charges $70+ for.
Military Members: File Free
Active-duty military and their families can file federal and state taxes completely free through MilTax (provided by the DoD through TaxSlayer). This includes all forms, all situations — no income limits. Access it through Military OneSource, not the regular TaxSlayer website.
