Prohibits tax preparation software companies from charging fee for electronically filing State tax returns.

HB 2916 prohibits tax preparation software companies from charging West Virginia taxpayers a fee for electronically filing state tax returns. The bill applies to all software used for tax return preparation, including online platforms and installed programs. It specifically bans fees for the electronic filing service itself, not for other features or services. This directly affects taxpayers who use such software to submit their West Virginia tax returns.
