@pappytx - can you post what it actually stated?
I've used TT for over 25 years and the state tax return has always been bundled into the cost of the federal return, so that is 'free'....but to e-file has NEVER been free.
it's the software that is included for free; the e-filing is a convenience and is never advertised as free for the state submission.
if you have used them for over a decade, then you know this - nothing has changed.
(ps - efiling is free in NY and always has been)
