HOWEVER YOUR AD IN AMAZON SAYS "Includes 5 Federal e-files and 1 State via download"   which is very misleading!     I just got this quote from Amazon webpage where I bought my 2022 TurboTax.   Later in the text the add says "State e-file sold separately. "    FIX YOUR MISLEADING AD IN AMAZON.

The ad is correct.  You receive one free state tax program download.

There is a $25 state e-file charge (except New York state) for each state return e-filed.  This e-file charge can be avoided by printing and mailing the state tax return.

Was some glitch in system if you were able to do that f or free for all those years.

Everyone else paid $20 or $25 for each state efile.

Did you notice that post you responded to was from 2019?  Doubtful that the OP will ever see your reply.

That's BS You charge for everything.  $25 for filing a state return is too much.  I do taxes for my friends for free.  Now I have to pay $25 for each e file of a state return after I have paid $40 for an additional state software.  No more turbo tax after this year!!!!
