Individual Income Tax
*The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Direct File program is a new filing option that eligible taxpayers in Maine can use to file their federal individual income taxes online directly with the IRS, for free. After you complete your federal return through Direct File, you will be directed to Maine's free filing tool, the Maine Tax Portal. Your information will not be transferred automatically.
Click here to learn about the IRS Direct File program.
You can use the Maine Tax Portal to file your Maine individual income tax return even if you do not use the IRS Direct File to file your federal return.
