I paid for delux for my 2021 taxes and need to amend shouldn't it be free to amend?

What is the reason you are amending your return?    You appear to be using online Self-Employed Edition (at least that is what is displayed underneath your question.)    Did you happen to upgrade from Deluxe to the Self-Employed Edition while preparing your amended return?    If so, it will charge you the additional fee.

Are you needing to report self-employed income/expenses?

By the way, were you due a Federal refund with your original return?  If so, have you received it?   It's recommended to wait until you receive any Federal refund from the original return before amending.

@Montoyalynds91 unless the amendment causes you to need to upgrade, there is no cost for the amendment.  DO NOT AMEND until the first return has been completely processed - depending on the reason you are amending, it is possible the IRS finds the same error and makes the adjustment for you,.

if the amendment reason relates to Child Tax Credit or Recovery REbate CRedit (stimulus), the IRS will definately make the adjustment without the need to amend.
