charging for my one free state e- file

MaryAW · ‎March 27, 2020

When I got ready to file the taxes federal and state for [PII removed] I had a message to pay the 24.95 to e- file. I used my credit card and paid it. YOU can be assured that I will not use Turbo Tax next year because this is fraud. I never even got to use the one free state!

Did you purchase desktop software with state software included? They sell Deluxe both with and without state software--so you have to be careful which one you choose. And even if it does have the state software download included, that is for preparing the state. There is an extra fee to e-file the state. You can avoid the $24.99 state e-file fee if you print and mail the state instead of e-filing it.

You get one free state PROGRAM download to prepare unlimited state returns. Then each state return (including the first one) is 19.99 to efile, usually goes up to 24.99 March 1. Or you can print and mail state for free.
