I was charged twice for e filing two state returns.  Have tried to get one charge refunded but can't find the proper way to do it.  The help page hasn't got a solution except that phone number which only gets me back to the help page and no-help from that page and around and around, etc.  Any instructions that will work?

    Using the TurboTax desktop CD/Download editions there is an e-file charge for each state tax return e-filed (except New York which is free).  There is No one free e-file. 

    The Free state program is the download, not an e-file.

    This deluxe version was purchased from Staples on a cd.  The state returns are New Mexico and California.  I paid $43.16 on 2-13-2022 and $43.15 on 2-6-2022 for filing these state returns.  Please refund one of these charges...thanks.  BTW, isn't there engineering controls in place so that this situation can't occur?

    I am filing only one Utah tax return and the software is demanding a second charge.  I double checked my cr card that first charge went through but Turbo Tax is still demanding a second.

    For the Online version  or the Desktop program?  In the Desktop program it is $20 EACH to efile a state return including the first one.  And that is in addition to buying the second state program.  Or were these for different people in the same state?
