<prompt> Human: I just prepared my taxes on Turbo tax and realized that they have raised their prices doubled from last year to file electronically. But I can print out the forms already and choose not to file through them. Is there a disadvantage to mailing them in and not e-filing? I already owe a little money. I dont feel so good thinking of using their service and not paying them but the sting of owing taxes is clouding my mind right now.  <response>: The main disadvantage is they will take longer to process, so if youre expecting a refund you can expect it to take longer to get to you. Since you say you owe, theres little difference, just make sure you put them in the mail on time and pay them on time either by including a check with your return or paying online when you file. You can also check out Free File Fillable Forms which is a service that lets you e-file for free by filling out all the forms yourself. If youre comfortable doing so, you could just print out the forms that TurboTax gave you or download the pdf or whatever and enter the numbers into the forms on Free File Fillable Forms and e-file that way.
