Do you have a TurboTax Online account?

We'll help you get started or pick up where you left off.

I was charged $138.00 and I should had been charged $59 and I don't know how to go back to cancel payment. what can I do?

I'm being charged $150 on my credit card, and this should had cost me $59 for state return. I should not have been charged $79 for the basic. this is ridiculous! and there was no way to undo what they have done! The instructions that was given to use to get the payment canceled didn't go along with the information on the forms that were given. I did not have a Federal refund, only state refund. by the time I realized what was done, it was to late on my side.

Your fees are not based on whether you are getting a refund or the amount of a refund; your fees are based on the version of the software you used.even if you owe and are not getting a refund at all.  When you use online TurboTax there are separate fees for federal and state returns--you seem to think you only need to pay for the state, which is incorrect.

How can I see my TurboTax  fees?

If your TurboTax fees are higher than expected, you can reduce them by removing add-ons     (BEFORE you e-file) :

 

 

 If you started in the Free Edition and entered any data that required any extra forms or schedules, you have to upgrade to a paid version and if you are watching the screens carefully you are alerted to the upgrade.

 

 

 

 

 

Or—-Use this IRS site for other ways to file for free.  There are 8  free software versions available from the IRS Free File site

 

https://apps.irs.gov/app/freeFile/

 

Or—if you live in certain states you may be eligible to use the new IRS Direct File

 

 

In Filing Season 2025, Direct File will be available in Alaska, Arizona, California, Connecticut, Florida, Idaho, Kansas, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Washington, Wisconsin, and Wyoming.

TurboTax Online: Important Details about Filing Simple Form 1040 Returns

If you have a simple Form 1040 return only (no forms or schedules except as needed to claim the Earned Income Tax Credit, Child Tax Credit or student loan interest), you can file for free yourself with TurboTax Free Edition, or you can file with TurboTax Live Assisted Basic at the listed price. Roughly 37% of taxpayers are eligible.

Examples of situations included in a simple Form 1040 return (assuming no added tax complexity):

  • W-2 income
  • Interest, dividends or original issue discounts (1099-INT/1099-DIV/1099-OID) that don’t require filing a Schedule B
  • IRS standard deduction
  • Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC)
  • Child Tax Credit (CTC)
  • Student loan interest deduction
  • Taxable qualified retirement plan distributions
  •  

Examples of situations not included in a simple Form 1040 return:

  • Itemized deductions claimed on Schedule A, like charitable contributions, medical expenses, mortgage interest and state and local tax deductions
  • Unemployment income reported on a 1099-G
  • Business or 1099-NEC income (often reported by those who are self-employed, gig workers or freelancers)
  • Stock sales (including crypto investments)
  • Income from rental property or property sales
  • Credits, deductions and income reported on other forms or schedules 
  • 1095A for marketplace health insurance

 

 

If you have not registered, paid or e-filed you can clear and start over in a lower version of the software.

CLEAR AND START OVER
