TurboTax is forcing me to buy Delux for contributing $200 to a retirement account. I don't want Delux and there is no way to cancel or remove/edit the retirement portion.

I only want the free version of TurboTax

It sounds as if your contribution may have generated a retirement savers credit, or another credit that is found on a form that is not included in the free edition of TurboTax. 


When your tax return contains unsupported forms, you cannot use the free version of the program to file. 

 

I am sorry for the inconvenience.

The IRS FreeFile version of Turbotax is available for taxpayers with income up to $36,000 and military taxpayers with income up to $69,000, and includes all forms that are normally an upgrade charge in regular Turbotax. To use the FreeFile version, you must log into the FreeFile site and make a new account, you can't use your regular Turbotax account. (If your browser automatically logs you into the regular Turbotax site, you may need to clear your browser history then try again.)

Other tax providers may have higher income limits on their FreeFile programs. You can check the IRS FreeFile site for more information.
