Are you using Deluxe? That's what is displayed by your screen name above. The Deluxe Edition you appear to be in can prepare a Form 1040, a 1040A, or 1040EZ, depending on what your situation calls for. In other words, it prepares both the "long form" and the "short form" depending on what you require.
Deluxe is 39.99 for Federal and 36.99 for State. But prices will rise after 2/28 if not paid in advance.
By "short form" are you actually asking how to switch to one of the free products? TurboTax has 2 free products.
If you don't need Deluxe
and can file a simple return using Form 1040A or 1040EZ, you can
downgrade to regular Free Edition if you haven't already paid or
registered. Here's how to downgrade:

cannot. It will prepare a Form 1040 return, or 1040A or 1040EZ.
