See this FAQ on some situations where one cannot use Free Edition:įAQ: Why do I have to upgrade from Free Edition?įAQ: How do I clear and start over in Online TurboTax? If you need to itemize deductions, for instance, or have one of the Schedules 1-3, etc., you won't be able to use it. Did you start in Free Edition and had to upgrade? If you haven't already paid or registered, and if you are sure you don't need Deluxe, you can use the 'Clear and Start Over' feature to choose Free Edition, but depending on the complexity of your return you may not be able to use regular Free Edition. Certain forms are not available in Free Edition and require an upgrade to Deluxe, such as one of Schedules 1-3, itemized deductions, etc. The regular Free Edition is for very simple returns and not everyone can use it. If you have already paid/filed, then the following will not apply. NOTE: If you haven't already filed, you may be able to change editions. I'll tell you about both free products below.

You appear to be using Online Deluxe Edition, which is a paid version-$40 for Federal and $40 for state, and if you choose to pay out of your Federal refund, there is an additional $40 fee ($45 for California filers.) If you chose that payment method, we can tell you how to remove the $40 refund processing fee and pay the remainder of the fees up front with credit/debit card. TurboTax has 2 free products, but you are not in one of them.
