Texas will receive more than $14 million as part of a $141 million multistate settlement with Inuit Inc., marketer of the popular “Turbo Tax” tax preparation software. As a result, some 500,000 Texans will benefit from the settlement after Intuit misled them into purchasing the company’s tax products when they were already eligible to file their taxes for free. Eligible Texas consumers should begin receiving their restitution payments within the next few months, according to a press release from Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton.
The Texas settlement was part of the New York-led lawsuit that will help millions of Americans, claim a nationwide $141 million agreement from a tax-filing tech company that bamboozled customers into paying for services that should have been free, according to New York’s top legal official.
