Yes correct, I did my son’s taxes Thinking it would be easy as he just had a summer job and in college, and the FREE TurboTax cost me $133. How are they able to do that? I continued to refuse deluxe and all the other crap that was offered for that price, but I still paid $133 and I did the taxes myself!! He owes $577 and federal and $14 state. SMH. And no, no self employment for the. College kid
