Did I just pay $40 to e-file a single state return on April 15, 2026?
In this community forum we don't know what product you are using.
In Online TurboTax there is no fee to efile a state return. In Online TurboTax fees are for preparation plus any add-ons. If you choose to pay any product fees out of your refund, there is an additional $40 service fee ($45 for California filers.)
In desktop TurboTax there is a $25 state efile fee. (no state efile fee for New York state). And no fee to print and mail the state return.
If you are using desktop software and chose to pay that $25 efile fee out of your Federal refund, there is an extra $40 service fee ($45 for California filers.) So that would be a total of $65 ultimately.
