The state of South Carolina just sent me a tax bill for the 2021 and 2020 tax years indicating that I did not do my taxes correctly. I entered them in as per all the prompts and TurboTax did not calculate the state tax correctly. I purchased the audit protection for both of these years and the TurboTax auditor said the state is correct we owe the tax, penalty, and interest. I'm sure I will be getting a bill for 2022 as this was done the same way. What recourse do I have as a result of the incorrect tax calculations?
