@farqm We are at a disadvantage since you are posting in a thread that has posts from multiple users already. We cannot tell what software you are using---it does not show up here.
But I am going to take a wild guess and ask if you started out in Free Edition and entered some retirement that was deducted from your W-2 that is giving you the retirement savers credit. If that is what is happening, You can clear it and start over,

then you can tell the software that you are a student. Students are not eligible for that credit, so you will get out of the upgrade to a paid version of the software --- you will of course, not get that little credit.
Or....you can use one of the other software programs on the IRS site to file for free
Use this IRS site for other ways to file for free. There are 8 free software versions available from the IRS Free File site
