Your TurboTax fees are not based on the amount of the tax refund you are receiving.   The fees are for using the software and on which version of the software you used-----you have to pay the fees  for using the software even if you owe tax due and are not receiving a refund at all.

 

Did you use the help of  "Live" expert to prepare your tax return?   If you did not use the help of an "expert" you can clear it and use a lower version.

If your TurboTax fees are higher than expected, you can reduce them by removing add-ons     (BEFORE you e-file) :

 

Or—-Use this IRS site for other ways to file for free.  There are 8  free software versions available from the IRS Free File site

Or—if you live in certain states you may be eligible to use the new IRS Direct File
