If you use a paid version of the software and then choose to pay the fees for your software by having it deducted from your federal refund---instead of paying with a credit/debit card before you file, there is ---and always has been-- a $40 "refund processing" fee. That money goes to the third party bank that receives your refund from the IRS, takes out what you owe TurboTax, and sends the rest to you.
If you do not want to pay the extra fee----pay for using TurboTax BEFORE you file your tax return by using a credit or debit card.
