Why must I pay $24 to e-file when I already paid for your software?

    If you used desktop software there is a fee to e-file the state return.  You got the software to prepare the state return but if you want to avoid the state e-file fee, then print, sign, and mail the state instead of efiling it.

    My problem is that when I try to pay for my state tax e-file, I get the following message on my screen, "Hmm... it looks like we’ve hit a slight snag
    Please try again or check back in a bit."

    I have now reset my password 3 times in the past hour, I can't get signed on to pay the e-file fee. I continue to get the, "Hmm... it looks like we’ve hit a slight snag
    Please try again or check back in a bit." message. What else need I do?
