Turbotax started my tax return in Deluxe Live probably because that's what I used last year. When it asked if I would like to use my past wages to qualify for a larger return my return increased. When I used Turbotax Deluxe I was told that I didn't qualify. I can't specifically state that was the problem. What I can tell you is that by using Deluxe instead of Deluxe Live the result was less. Since I had to erase the 1st. results in order to pay for a less expensive Turbotax I can't provide the actual facts.
