I have used Turbo Tax for many, many years, but have only e-filed maybe once, and that was quite a few years back. I am one of those who like paper copies on top of digital ones. But this year I decided I would try the e-file thing. It was a pain in you know what. They wanted a bunch of information for security reasons, which I get, but I am not happy with having to send my personal information out into the ethers. I have no idea how secure it is. But I carried on, once I got to the end I found I was going to need to pay $25 for each state I have to file in. I did not see any information about needing to pay prior to getting to that screen! I was not a happy camper. Much less expensive to mail and print a copy. I would have expected TT to at least put some kind of notice... all they say is it is free to e-file Federal return. Well, that doesn't address State returns. I bit the bullet and spent the money, but that won't happen again.
