Bear in mind that the different TurboTax "flavors" handle different tax situations and their associated forms. We offer TurboTax Federal Free Edition for very simple tax situations. Not all forms are supported in our Federal Free Edition. If your tax situation is a bit more complicated, you will be prompted to upgrade.

Here is a short list of some common tax situations and the online products that now uniquely support them:

• Itemized Deductions (Schedule A/1040)- Deluxe, Premier, and Self-Employed
• Capital Gains or Losses (Schedule D) - Premier and Self-Employed
• Rental Income (Schedule E) - Premier and Self-Employed
• Profit or Loss from Business (Schedules C-EZ and C) - Self-Employed

If you feel as though you have been upgraded by mistake, you can downgrade by using the Clear & Start Over feature if you have not paid or registered your account.
