TurboTax has 2 free products, but only one has a free state return. The regular Federal Free Edition is for simple 1040A or 1040EZ returns. It is currently free for the Federal return, but 29.99 for each state return. (The free state return in the Absolute Zero promotion expired at the end of March 16.)
TurboTax also has another free product called the FREEDOM Edition (not to be confused with the regular Free Edition). It has free Federal preparation AND free State preparation. There is no efiling fee.
The Freedom Edition is more fully-featured than the regular Free Edition. The Freedom Edition can prepare Schedule A, C, D, E, and F that the Free Edition cannot. It will prepare a Form 1040 or 1040A or 1040EZ.
For Freedom Edition a user needs to meet only ONE of these qualifications:
AGI of $33,000 or less
or active duty military (including Reservists and National Guard) with a military-issued W-2 and a 2016 family AGI of $64,000 or less
or eligible for the Earned Income Credit (EIC).
