If you have opted to pay your TurboTax fees with your refund, then the additional $34.99 is for our Refund Processing Service. This is a feature that allows you to deduct your TurboTax fees from your refund and is a bank charge. This additional charge can be avoided by removing the service and paying with a credit or debit card. The link below is a TurboTax FAQ that will give you instructions on removing the Refund Processing Service and changing your payment method to credit or debit if you choose and desire to do so:
