IRS will pilot free, direct tax filing in 2024::Direct File is a shot across the bows of Turbotax, H&R Block, and others who have resisted free and simple tax filing for decades.

In France everyone has to fill a tax return. It will be prefilled with your salaries, but you still need to add deductions (for example house renovations or child care) or special revenues like real estate.

But yeah, if you only have salaries and no deductions you just validate your prefilled return and be done with it.

You can deduct house renovations in France? Does this mean if your reno is the same as your salary you pay no tax that year?

That seems odd
