Do you have to file a late 2024 federal tax return through the IRS website? Logan Allec, CPA, walks through filing options, provider websites, and why choosing the correct tax-year product matters.

IMPORTANT CLARIFICATIONS
IRS Free File and Free File Fillable Forms are current-year programs. The current-year provider comparison shown in this walkthrough is not a route for filing a 2024 return. For 2024, use a provider’s separate 2024 product, a tax professional, or the proper 2024 paper forms.

During 2026, IRS individual Modernized e-File supports 2025, 2024 and 2023, subject to system availability and provider requirements. FreeTaxUSA requires an Identity Protection PIN for its prior-year e-file route for 2024 and 2023. That is not a universal requirement for every filing method; paper filing is another option.

Recorded October 14, 2026. Website offers, eligibility, software availability, and pricing can change. On-screen clarifications distinguish current-year programs from prior-year filing. General educational information, not individualized tax advice.
