When you purchased the TurboTax Deluxe desktop CD/Download edition, one Free state program download was included in the purchase price. The state e-file is an additional charge that is currently $20 for each state tax return e-filed. Since you have two state tax returns to e-file the charge would be $40.
To avoid the state e-file fee the state return can be printed and mailed.
The state e-file charge when using the TurboTax desktop editions has been in effect for at least the past twenty years. In 2004 the charge was $14.95 for the 2003 state return e-file.
