The product I used was a free program for those who take a straight deduction rather than itemize their taxes. There is no charge for the free program, or so I thought. The problem came when Turbo Tax charge me $313 to file my "free" program because I reported the sale of one single, solitary share of stock. That is way the problem lies. Not with what I paid for the tax prep program, but what Turbo Tax charged me because of the sale of the one share of stock. The stock garnered $29 taxable income. Turbo Tax charged me $313 to file. Do you see the problem here? It is Turbo Tax unfair charge. I am being sent to ask a refund for a paid tax prep program. It was not not for a paid program but for what Turbo Tax charged because of reporting this income. Turbo Tax doesn't need the money but I do.
