Get your taxes done using TurboTax

@Kimmy1  mesquitebean  asked and remained me.   Those people that got state e-file for free might live in New York that has a law that state tax MUST be e-filed if using software to file and prohibits any tax software company from charging to e-file a NY state tax return.   NY is the ONLY state with such a law (that makes me wounder why other states do not do that, but so far NY is the only one).    So YES some state filers do get free e-file provided that are filing a NY state tax return.
