State tax

[Michy]

I dont have the money to pay to file my N.C state tax at  the moment can it be taken out of my . State return . I thought it was already taken out of my federal return

Huh?  If you owe a state tax due there is no state refund to take it out of.  You mean the federal refund?

NO, you can't have a state tax due deducted from your federal refund.  Never.  You can only have the Turbo Tax fees deducted from your refund.  See,  Can I pay my state taxes from my federal refund?

Check the printout or PDF of your return; look for the state cover sheet with the Turbotax logo.  If you owed tax, it will show the payment information and how/when you decided to pay.  Read the state payment instructions carefully since most states cannot be paid from within the TT system and requires additional steps.

@Michy  if you have state tax due to North Carolina, suggest filing the tax return without a payment. 

Unlike the IRS, North Carolina doesn't let you set up a payment plan in advance of filing.   

After you file the return (without the payment), the State will send you information about setting up a payment plan to pay the taxes.  Once paid, all of the penalties will be waived and you'll only be left with the interest. 

The State is very reasonable....

Are you asking about the TT state fees?  They cannot be taken form your state tax refund.
