Why was i required to pay for state efile, I purchased product with free state efile? i did not itemize, i took the standard deduction.

If you purchased the Deluxe version that has both Federal and State programs, it is a free state program download that is included; i.e., the program to prepare the state return.  But there is a fee to efile the state return (except New York.)

Did you encounter a 24.99 fee? 
In all desktop products there is a 24.99 fee to efile a state return, except there is no fee for New York state.  There is no fee to print and mail the state return.
