Was told I had to use turbo deluxe for my efile $99.00 + $29.00 for state. I had 2 employers and unemployment. Gave All info. Names, addresses, employer id #s, wages taxes taken, and they didn't put it through to IRS correctly, didn't put one of the employees info at all. It's excepted on March 6, it has been in review since. I'm in financial hardship, have no income at all and need my tax return. Can I get a lawyer to go after Turbo tax for this?
Also they tried deducting payment from my bank 2xs for using deluxe, and has put me $59.00 negative in my account because of it and thier screw up

When calling the IRS do not choose the first choice re: "Refund", or it will send you to an automated phone line.
I usually use a speakerphone so I can work on something else while waiting.
If you don't get good info/results from the IRS, you can contact the IRS Taxpayer Advocate Service for your area. They are especially prone to help if you have a hardship, or if there have been continued delays with lack of info from the IRS. At the following IRS website, find the USA map and click on your state, and it will give you the number of your IRS Taxpayer Advocate.
