@Tmchase You cannot pay your TurboTax fees from a federal refund if you are not getting a refund or if your refund is not enough to cover the fees. What does it show for your federal refund? Is there an amount on line 35a of your Form 1040?

Click on Tax Tools on the left side of the screen. Click on Tools. Click on View Tax Summary. Click on Preview my 1040 on the left side of the screen.
If the amount on line 35a is not enough to pay the fees plus the extra refund processing fee of $39.99 you will need to pay the fees using a different method-----credit or debit card.
