Get your taxes done using TurboTax

In California Desktop program to remove Audit Defense and Premium Services you have to change to pay the $20 or 25 state efile fee by credit card and not by having it deducted from your federal refund.  Or print and mail state for free.  Go back through the File tab again slowly and read the screens, there is one screen that can trip you up.   Change  to pay with a credit card.  Then if Audit Defense is still there you can remove it.

 

This is an old screenshot but it might be similar.   Watch out to clink on the credit card button.
