I am using turbo Tax Premier 2017 desktop version. It shows $19 for state e-filing and while paying by credit card online it shows $24 ? any idea why there are differences ?

Looks like Turbo Tax raised the e-file price for state. Once i downloaded the latest update it shows $24.

you can avoid that state e-file fee by printing and mailing the state return.

Please see the link below for current TurboTax Premier Pricing Information:

The desktop programs come with 5 free federal e-files (set by IRS rules).  Any federal returns over the 5 will have to be printed and mailed.  You can e-file as many state tax returns as needed.  However, there is an e-file charge for each state return e-filed, except for New York state. The state e-file charge can be avoided by printing and mailing the state tax return.Refer to the link below and click the State Download link on the page. Read entirely.
