TurboTax kept forcing a Retirement tax savings.. cool.. fine..
They try to force a $60 upgrade but show they are getting you $99 so it doesn't cost you a dime... lol

OK.. so I give permission to buy the upgrade.. BAM.. The upgrade software now charges $50 to e-File State taxes....lmao

$110

Zipped over to Credit Karma after a Google search showed a redditor suggest it for removing this fee

$0 and no creepy traps to buy upgrades etc... and easier to use even..free audit protection too..

The corporation behind TurboTax sees Credit Karma as a threat, so they acquired them recently for $7.1billion. Hopefully, regulators can stop this before it is finalized.

Thank you..

Credit Karma's interface was much faster and simpler. And yet it was more thorough. The retirement credit area.. They thoroughly explained the lines required and why while TurdoTax kept causing an error and never explaining clearly how the taxpayer earned this credit.

Intuit is doing like Microsoft.. buy the competition instead of innovate
