My download from Amazon was for the Deluxe Edition that said it included one free Federal and one free State Efile. I have done my taxes and efiled, but I had to pay $40 for federal and $20 for state. How do I get a refund from turbotax?
In the desktop version you downloaded from Amazon there is a $20 fee to efile a state return (except for New York state). Did you choose to pay that $20 state efile fee out of your Federal refund instead of paying upfront with credit/debit card? If so, there is an additional $40 service fee for that "pay-out-of-refund" method ($45 for California filers.)
If your Deluxe is the combo version (Fed & State) that includes a state program, then what is free is the state program download to prepare the state returns--not a free state efile. There is a $20 fee to efile each state return, except for New York state. There is no fee to print and mail the state returns.
