THOUSANDS OF STATE TURBO TAX USERS DUE PART OF CLASS ACTION SETTLEMENT

The Pennsylvania state attorney general’s office says about 158-thousand Pennsylvanians will be getting some money from a class action settlement from the owner of TurboTax. The settlement for the state totals just under five-million-dollars.  A multistate investigation found that the company tricked tax filers into paying for some of their products that were available for free. The AG’s office says people who used TurboTax’s Free Edition in 2016 through 2018 will receive about 30-dollars for each year they used the program.
