Get your taxes done using TurboTax

This is a known problem.
If you purchase the Deluxe edition directly from the TurboTax website all the desktop editions include one free state program download (except Basic).  However, since there are no state programs to download until at least December or later you get the message to purchase the state program and that message is incorrect.  The TurboTax programmers are working to prevent that message from being presented and to notify the user that the state programs are not yet available.
