Why was I charged to file a Florida State return when Florida does not do income tax, so nothing needs to be filed?
I am a long time Michigan resident. I picked up a temporary job in FL for 1 week after the hurricanes. I received a W2 from this job. During my taxes, I entered in the W2, and it added Florida to my states to file in. At the end I was reviewing my cost (it made me upgrade to Deluxe), and it was
Federal $39
Florida $39
Michigan $39
Federal and Michigan eFiled, and it said that nothing had to be mailed or sent for Florida because they do not do income taxes, so I was all set. So my question is, WHY was I charged $39 for Florida? I called in and the agent said it was the fee to eFile, but I informed her that nothing was filed for this state. We talked in circles and she did not help me. I feel I should get a refund for the $39 that went to nothing for the charges to file for Florida.
