Are you in California? If you want to have the state efile fee deducted from your federal refund you have to get Premium services. There is an extra $40 (45 in California) Refund Processing Service charge for that which you can avoid by paying upfront with a credit card.
Oh and.....In the Desktop program you get one free state PROGRAM download to prepare unlimited state returns. Then each state return (including the first one) is $20 to efile, usually goes up to $25 March 1. Or you can print and mail state for free.
Yes im in california I paid for the premium with the one free state file I still got charged 45$ for premium and 25$ for state
Yes I explained that. It is $25 to efile state. Then to have the fee deducted from your federal refund is another $45 Refund Processing Service charge which you could have avoided by paying the $25 with a credit card.
See the very last post with screenshot on this one
But isn’t suppose to already be included when you buy the turbo tax deluxe with one free state file
