As far as I know, there's no native Linux tax software that can file electronically.. if there's even any tax software at all. For many years I've used TaxAct in a virtualbox/vmware. That worked fine. TaxAct online should be fine too. Last year I had a huge mixup so I had to use an actual CPA. This year even though everything's back to normal I figured I'd use a CPA /and/ do TaxAct online, and compare the two. My taxes are pretty simple and straightforward, really, but the CPA got me a bit more money back. This amount pretty much lined up with how muc moer the CPA cost than TaxAct did, but it came wth the piece of mind of knowing I didn't do ANY of the number-work.
