      Which is funny considering this is only for federal and not state taxes. Do they say why it’s limited to specific states?

        It’s a trial program, to work out the major kinks, issues, and problems before rolling it out further to other states.

        It’s also federal-only, meaning you still have to do your state returns. Most of the states in the trial have no state income tax, which makes it an ideal solution for taxpayers in those states.

        Expect it to expand to all 50 states in the coming years, presuming Republicans don’t somehow manage to legislate it into oblivion like usual.

          If they have no state level income tax how do the states get money for things? Do they just tax businesses?
