Is it wrong (legally) to file your federal taxes without filing your state taxes? I can't file my state right now because Turbo tax charges and I don't have money right now.

You might check with your State. For example, Illinois offers it's own online tax filing system (free).
You could always just print out the tax return and mail it in.
Also there is no law that says you have to file both Federal and State returns at the same time. You just have have them filed by April 17th, so you file your Federal now and file the State later if needed.

No, its not "wrong." The federal and state returns are totally separate. You are, however, supposed to file your tax returns by April 17, 2007. If you cant file them on time, you should prepare an extension for the state you live in. Any tax due is supposed to be paid in by 4/17/07 and you may incur interest and penalties if it isnt. But if you are receiving a refund, it doesnt really matter if you dont file by 4/17.

Honestly you don't have to file through Turbo Tax. You can print out your forms and it will cost you all of 37 cents to stick in the US mail. There's no excuse not to file.

No, they're independent of each other, and you can file each of them at any time before the deadline.
