Why was I charged over $100 to file my state returns?? It’s supposed to be $39.99!!

ReturnS? As in more than one?

No, one state and one federal. I have to pay in, and also had to pay $108 just to file my state return? Last year I was charged $39.99. I used the same turbo tax.

It's $59.99 for Federal, plus $39.99 for state, plus sales tax. So $108 total sounds right.

When using TT online, there is no filing fee. The charge is for the use of the software to prepare the returns. TT must pay its employees, and cannot give everyone everthing for free.

In the regular Turbo Tax Free Edition, information that you can enter is limited now.  Under the new tax laws, there are no more simple Form 1040EZ or 1040A's.  Everything goes on a little Form 1040 that has six extra "schedules" with it, and if you need any of those schedules, you are not able to use the Free Edition.

Why do I have to upgrade from the Free Edition?

There is also The Turbo Tax Free File program which is free for federal and state.  And has more forms than the Federal Free Edition, like Schedules A, B, C , D, E, F, EIC, H, K-1, SE,  etc.

NOTE:  You will have to log out of your regular Turbo Tax Account and setup a new account with a new username and new password or it will take you back to regular Turbo Tax.

To qualify for the Free File website  you just need to meet one of these 3 things
AGI $34,000 or less
Active duty military with AGI of $66,000 or less
OR qualify for EIC (earned income credit.)

In order to use the Free File program, you have to start it at a special website.  Click on the bottom Orange button I Qualify Start Now and set up a NEW account

Or you can get the blank forms from the IRS and fill them out by hand for free like we all used to do before computers.  

You are posting from online Deluxe.  There is an extra fee to prepare a state return with Deluxe--it is not included in the price for the federal return.

How can I see my TurboTax  fees?
