Cons If you want your return done electronically, then TurboTax routes it thru Santa Barbara Savings and Trust. Not only do you pay for the Federal cost, another fee for State filing PLUS the fee to do it electronically thru Santa Barbara is EXORBITANT. on March 11, 2009 by kecward78  | Read full review
