Why wont it let me pay with federal refund

 

After you file

If your federal refund is not enough to cover the fees AND the extra refund processing fee of $39.99 ($44.99 ind CA) that pays the third party bank that extracts your fees and sends the rest of the refund to you, you cannot choose that option.  You have to pay upfront using a credit or debit card.
