If you have only one W-2 then you should be using the Free edition. Do not accept any upgrades to Plus or Deluxe since there is no need. Although the program would not just require an upgrade to Deluxe unless you have entered some type of tax data that can only be entered on a full Form 1040. The Free edition supports only Forms 1040EZ and 1040A.
If you have not paid for the online edition you are using, have not filed your tax return or registered the Free edition, then you can clear your return and start over with a lower priced edition. Click on Tax Tools on the left side of the program screen while working on the 2017 online tax return. Click on Clear & Start Over.
If you are eligible you can use the TurboTax Freedom edition which is free to file both a federal and state tax return. The Freedom edition is a full featured personal tax program and on a separate website from the TurboTax online editions.
To qualify for free 2017 federal and state tax returns in Freedom Edition, you'll need to meet at least one of these requirements:
