state e-file cost

I am not a first-time filer but this seemed to be the right category to chose.

I have filed a CA return and in doing so I paid $25. My question is : I have two other family members who need to file CA returns. Does my $25 allow me to e-file for them or is it $25 per return?

It is $25 per return.

Thanks, I suspected as much'

FYI

I have had problems again in e-filling a California return after I had paid the fee! TT identifies errors and will not let you e-file. Then, after a period of time, all is well! If it really is waiting for the fee to clear, it should give a message as such.
