Question

Getting a refund for optional state tax e-filing that didn't end up e-filing

I'm not trying to get a refund for my Turbotax product but the state e-filing add-on that's done one step before the returns are electronically sent. 

 

My state e-file was rejected for reasons that Turbotax was unable to diagnose or resolve. With the 4/15 deadline here I had no choice but to paper file. Would this entitle me to a refund of the $25 I paid separately for state e-filing?

    You can try asking.  When you contract them do not say refund,  say Billing Issue.    How to contact Turbo Tax

    Thank you, I just called them and they were good about it and I got my refund! He made it sound like I got a once in ten thousand favor, but I did get it.
