I can't figure out why you are charging me $116! I just wanted the most basic option available to file both state and federal. Please explain these charges to me. Thanks!

If your TurboTax Online fees aren't quite what you expected, it's likely you upgraded to a more full-featured version, added a state, and/or chose one or more optional services or add-ons. To view what fees are applied, you can take the steps below:

1. After signing in to (continuing) your online return, select Tools from the My Account drop-down list in the upper right corner.
2. In the pop-up window, click the My Fees button to get a breakdown of your TurboTax charges.

Tip: If these instructions don't work (for example, on your mobile device) open the File section and then proceed to the Review Your Order screen. This also shows the breakdown of your charges.

Once you have determined what is causing the increase in cost, you can remove certain features in most cases. Below are some helpful links for the common fees:
