Get your taxes done using TurboTax

What is the $45 for?  It is free to efile federal and only $25 to efile state.  Are you in California?  If he wants the $25 state efile fee deducted from a federal refund their is an Extra $40 Refund Processing Service charge (45 in California) which you can avoid by paying upfront with a credit card.  Or you can print and mail state for free.

 

Or is it charging him for a state program download?  Does he need to file in another state?  

And if he used your License Code he would have needed to log into your account to activate it.  I think when he files he can use his account.
