  • Find free tax preparation assistance. If a taxpayer is eligible, they can access free tax software from their mobile device using the Free File tool within IRS2Go. They can use this software to quickly prepare and file their taxes and get their refund. Taxpayers who received an extension of time to file their taxes can use the app to file through the October extended filing deadline.
  • Get helpful tips and information. Taxpayers can use the app to access IRS accounts on social media, including links to helpful YouTube videos and the IRS Twitter accounts. Taxpayers can also use the app to sign up to receive IRS Tax Tips by email.

IRS2Go is available in both English and Spanish and available to download from Google Play, the Apple App Store or the Amazon Appstore.
