I was activated last year and am on active duty military orders but turbo tax is still trying to charge me for deluxe. How can I fix this?

In the personal info section, be sure to indicate that you are an active member of the military.  See image below.

AND THEN......Edit your Military W-2,

.....on a page AFTER the main W-2 form is a page with a whole list of checkboxes.

There is one in the middle you must check to indicate that W-2 was for active duty military service.
