You don't have to do that. There is no such requirement. You can fill out the forms for free.

But that's a bad solution. (Otherwise why do TurboTax et al even exist in the first place?)

IRS should just have a public free filing solution for everyone. If you have complicated taxes or want to do your own filing, you can still do that.
