State tax filing

I had an issue with my State return.  I also purchased TT Desktop with one state license.  During the last step of the state review, it directed me to buy the state license to complete the state return.  I could not proceed without being redirected.  I had to sign into Intuit to complete the transaction.   I thought maybe TT wanted to collect the state efilling fee earlier in the process.  After pay the $45, it directed by back to the State return review.   Again, I could not proceed without being redirected to purchase another state license.  Needless to say, there seemed to be a glitch.  So I had to manually advance to the audit check then the efilings.   Not sure why I was having this issue.  I have used TT for over 10 years.  I am not sure if I will use TT next year.    


As you've probably done, be sure you have a product that does include the state software.

If you are using the Deluxe Edition, it comes in 2 versions--one that is Federal-only, and one that is the combo Deluxe that includes both Federal and a State program.   Some people end up with the wrong Deluxe Edition.  The Basic Edition does not include a state program at all.

 

I think I know what you are describing because something similar happened to me one year, too.  But as I recall, I was able to figure out how to get past it by doing something non-intuitive in the popup window, but I can't remember exactly, and I don't have a way to test it

 

If your product includes state software, since you were charged again for the state software, you can ask TurboTax Support for a refund.

Hours are currently 5AM-9PM Pacific (8AM-12 Midnight Eastern), 7 days/week, but this is likely their busiest weekend of the year.
