Processing fee

I am not getting a refund from IRS I am paying. So why the processing fee?

Employee

There is no "refund processing" fee if you are not getting a refund. But if you used a paid version of the TurboTax software, you pay whether you are getting a refund or owe tax. The fee is for using the software; it is not based on whether you are getting a refund or how much the refund is.

How can I see my TurboTax fees?

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

Are you using the TurboTax desktop or the TurboTax online editions? Where are you seeing a processing fee?

Did you pay the tax due with a credit card? There may be a convenience fee.
