Filing Taxes? There Is An App For That

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- Taxes seem to be getting easier to file and easier to spend this year.

Some Americans will be getting their refunds on plastic. The IRS says low-income taxpayers who don't have bank accounts will be able to get their money on pre-paid debit cards from the government.

And as people are starting to work on their tax returns, TurboTax has come out with an app called SnapTax. It's an iPhone program that lets taxpayers file a basic return on their phone in about 30 minutes.

The app is free but there's a $15 charge to file your return.
