Why was I charged for using turbotax when filling my personal tax return.
What product edition did you use? TurboTax has only 1 free product (Free Edition), which is only for very simple tax returns--a Form 1040 with no other forms and schedules.

Have you already paid? If not, we can tell you how to use the IRS Free File program at the IRS website to select a provider that provides free tax return preparation and efiling if you meet certain requirements. The providers available there do not have the forms limitations. Some of the providers there also provide free state tax returns, but some are limited to only certain states, so you have to read the offers carefully.
