You all that have paid for years, I believe you paid, but I have actually gone back 5 years. Every year I purchase their Audit Protection, and I have never once paid for state e-filing...and my state was e-filed. I live in Illinois. This was the 1st time I was asked to pay, so I guess I was lucky.
It actually sounds silly to say you can file and e-file 5 federal, but only file 1 state for free. If you don't offer ANY FREE STATE E-FILE, than what difference should it make how many free state taxes you enter to print.
There are too many people saying they always got 1 free state for people not to believe it.
Well I went back thru my records, it was free
