I have a simple return, wages, no deductions one state. Why did I have to pay $110 for this? Is this a "bait and switch?"

A simple tax return is Form 1040 only, without any additional schedules. Situations covered include:

W-2 income
Limited interest and dividend income reported on a 1099-INT or 1099-DIV
Claiming the standard deduction
Earned Income Tax Credit (EIC)
Child tax credits

If being charged $150 for a simple return then a simple fix is to use H&R Block where they don't try to sneak fees in. All charges are disclosed before you even enter your information allowing you an "informed" decision vs being forced to pay for something you don't need or want.
