Everyone can "start for free" using TurboTax.  But the Free Edition is suitable only for the simplest returns.  Based on the information you enter, the program determines if you must upgrade to a paid edition.  And once you upgrade to a paid edition, a state tax preparation program is no longer free.  You can use the info below to review your TurboTax fees.
