If you have already filed your 2023 tax return, then what exactly are you trying to do?

 

Do you need to make changes to the 2023 return that you filed?

If so, then you will have to amend your 2023 tax return.

 

Before starting to amend the tax return, wait for the tax refund to be received or the taxes due to be paid and processed by the IRS.

See this TurboTax support FAQ for amending a current year tax return - https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-return/amend-federal-tax-return-current-year/L7eS6o1qh_US_en_US?uid=lfunevhk

If you have not filed it yet.   To go back to a lower version or the Free Edition you can try to clear and start over if you haven't paid or registered

If you started your tax return in TurboTax Free Edition (Form 1040 with limited credits; roughly 37% of taxpayers qualify), you won't need to clear and start over. You can select Switch to Free Edition instead.

 

In the regular Turbo Tax Free Edition, information that you can enter is limited now. Why do I have to upgrade from the Free Edition?

Or try the IRS Free File program

The only way to downgrade from Deluxe to Free Edition is to clear your tax return and start over. There is no way to downgrade without redoing your tax return.
