Late fee

I filed my taxes initially through Turbo Tax before the due date. I received a message saying the IRS is requesting more information. That happened 3 separate times until they finally accepted it and by that time it was a late filing. 
Is there anything I can do NOT have to pay a late fee? I have my account information that shows the number of times I filed and the dates.

You have not mentioned whether you owed tax due or if you are getting a refund.    If you are getting a refund there is no penalty for filing after the deadline.

 

Did you owe tax due?   How and when did you pay the tax owed?
