I am trying to file my taxes, which include a 1098e for my student loan interest payments. It is saying I have to upgrade to deluxe to file this. Is this true?

Yes.  Student loan interest is an "Adjustment to Income" reported on Schedule 1 of your return.  TurboTax Free Edition does not support Schedule 1.

Thank you! So why when I do choose to upgrade am i charge $59.99 (which i don't mind paying) as well as 49.99. Only one of these charges is made clear when it says the cost to upgrade.
