TurboTax knocks up to 20% off its federal filing products for verified teachers. Confirmed on TurboTax’s own ID.me-hosted teacher discount page.
TurboTax is Intuit’s tax-prep software, and Intuit’s own site calls it the best-selling tax software in the country. Most people already know the brand from tax-season commercials, the discount is the part that’s easy to miss.
Who Qualifies
Any teacher who can verify through ID.me. No school email is required, and no union or professional membership either, just the one-time ID.me identity check.
How to Claim It
Go through TurboTax’s ID.me-hosted teacher page, verify your identity if you haven’t already, and the discount applies at checkout. It’s a single check, not something you redo every filing season once ID.me has you on file.
What It Doesn’t Cover
The discount applies to TurboTax’s federal products only, not state filing. It also doesn’t apply if you’re filing through a TurboTax Verified Pro rather than the standard software.
TurboTax is one of five financial benefits worth knowing about as a teacher, most of them tucked behind union membership you might already be paying for. See the full list in 5 Must-Know Financial Benefits Available to Teachers.
