Yes, TurboTax will help you file your
state taxes.

Every state is different–each with their own tax laws. In fact, there are some states don't levy a state income tax at all. But if you live in a state where you have to file a state tax return, TurboTax will let you know and help you get them done right.

After you finish you federal tax return, we'll ask if you want to prepare your state taxes. The good news is we'll save you a lot of time by taking the information you've already given us for your federal return and transfer them into the right state forms. There are usually some additional questions we need to ask to make sure you're getting every state credit and deduction available.

Because filing a state return is an entirely separate process from your federal taxes there may be an additional charge, based on whether you use TurboTax Online or CD/Download.
