I filed with TurboTax and the fee was to be $40 but at checkout I was charged $80.  What happened with the free?

Same thing just happened to me! It was fine until the very end when I was finalizing everything. All of sudden my refund was $40 less then it should’ve been, seeing as I didn’t have to file in both states.
