After you file
I’m not clear on what you paid for. Did you do state returns for different states? The first state PROGRAM download is free to prepare multiple returns in that state. Then if you need to file a return for a different state you need to buy a different state program for $45. But you should have a $10 rebate from Sam’s you could use for it.
Then each state return (including the first one) is $25 to efile. Or you can print and mail state for free.
There is no filing fee or fee to get your refund. There is a Extra $40 Refund Processing Service charge (45 in California) if you want to have the state efile fee deducted from your refund which you can avoid by paying it upfront with a credit card. People get going too fast at the end to file and click on the wrong button to continue. You have to go slowly and read all the screens and watch what button you click on. There is one screen that can trip you up.
