Thank you, that actually appears to be much more user friendly than I would have imagined. When I think of government websites I think I'm still stuck in the mindset of government websites 10 years ago (aka absolutely horrible). I've been surprised at how good things have gotten regarding them a few times, so I guess I need to snap out of that mindset.

While looking over the requirements and supported forms I didn't find anything about student loans (form 1098E), would you happen to know if that method is compatible with them?

Free Fillable Forms supports every tax form as far as I'm aware.

It's really no different from doing your taxes by hand on paper, except it does almost all the math for you.

I've been using it for years (with about 15 different various forms) simply because I refuse to support the tax prep software companies out of principle.

And each year I just look at the previous year's which I saved as PDF for reference in case I forget which number goes where.
