INDIANAPOLIS — Thousands of Indiana residents who paid TurboTax to file their taxes could be in line for some money.
Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita has finalized a $2.9 million settlement with TurboTax owner Intuit over alleged deceptive advertising practices.

Indiana was one of dozens of states participating in a $141 million settlement involving Intuit.

Customers who were eligible for the free service but ended up paying will receive a direct payment of about $30 for each year they were affected from 2016 through 2018, according to the settlement. About 94,000 of the eligible transactions involved Indiana customers, according to the Indiana Attorney General’s Office.

A settlement administrator will contact customers to help them retrieve their money. Hoosiers don’t need to take action until the settlement administrator contacts them, according to Rokita’s office.
Intuit mandated several reforms as part of the settlement, including better disclosures in its advertising.
