TurboTax Free Edition (and TurboTax Live Basic) are intended for taxpayers with very simple returns that can fit on the new 1040 form without any schedules. Not all taxpayers qualify.  Please review the following Help Article for situations that may require you to upgrade to a paid TurboTax product:  Why do I have to upgrade from Free Edition? - Intuit

 

Prior to printing or e-filing your return, you can review your fees to find out why you're being charged. Then, follow the directions in this Help Article to remove any unwanted charge:  Why am I being charged for TurboTax Free Edition?

Money was taken out of my account that was unauthorized

@dimelodave What does that mean?   Do you mean you paid to file a tax return but the IRS is not sending your refund to you?   Your post is confusing.    Explain clearly please.

TURBOTAX TOOK MONEY OUT OF MY  ACCOUNT

 

 

Did you choose to have your TurboTax fees deducted from your federal refund?  Is your refund taking an unusually long time to arrive?  Or was your refund seized to pay a debt you owed? if so, you signed an agreement that says TT can withdraw its fees from your account.  TurboTax would have sent several emails to you before they took the money out of your account.

You all charged me for refund I never got. Refund my money or I am disputing the charge.

If you used TurboTax to file your tax return, you were not charged for a tax refund.  The TurboTax account fees were for use of the software to assist in completing a tax return.  The online account fees are the same whether the tax return was e-filed or printed and mailed by you.

 

Did you e-file your tax return and was it accepted?
Only the IRS and your State control when and if a Federal or State tax refund is Approved and Issued.

 

You complete your tax return by finishing all 3 Steps in the File section. In Step 3, to e-file your tax return, you must click on the large button labeled "Transmit my returns now".

 

After completing the File section and e-filing your tax return you will receive two emails from TurboTax. The first email when your tax return was transmitted and the second email when the tax return has either been accepted or rejected.

 

Note - Once a tax return has been Accepted by the IRS or a State, TurboTax receives no further information concerning the tax return or the status of any tax refund.  Only the taxpayer listed on the tax return can obtain the status of a tax refund or a tax return.

 

To check the status of an e-filed return, open up your desktop product or log into your TurboTax Online Account. You can find your status within the TurboTax product.
If accepted by the IRS use the federal tax refund website to check the refund status - https://www.irs.gov/refunds

If accepted by the state use this TurboTax support FAQ to check the state tax refund status - https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/1899433-how-do-i-track-my-state-refund

 

After the tax return has been Accepted by the IRS (meaning only that they received the return) it will be in the Processing mode until the tax refund has been Approved and then an Issue Date will be available on the IRS website.
See this IRS website for federal tax refund FAQ's - https://www.irs.gov/refunds/tax-season-refund-frequently-asked-questions
