    I actually haven’t done my taxes in like 2 years due to extreme poverty (in the u.s you don’t have to file if your income is under a certain threshold) I think I’m still under that, but I still should probably file this year right? Is there anything specific I should do? Maybe not the best place to ask, but I hate financial anything so I’d really appreciate some advice

      First thing would be to figure out if you’re still under the limit. If you don’t have to do them, don’t do them.

      If you are over the limit, there are plenty of free options out there to assist. I personally use free tax usa which works for me. It’s great if your income just comes from normal sources like a job, it’s not as great if you have investment income or things like that.

      I think turbo tax has a free version as well if you meet some qualifications. It’s a bit simpler to use imo, but Im not a fan of the company
