Why am I being upgraded to deluxe? I have a foreign bank account with a small value and the associated form is blank minus my name. Can they not file the form?

I am working in Europe, but do not make a lot of money.  I have a very very small amount in my foreign bank account and Turbo Tax told me that it doesn't need to be reported.  They are charging me because I said that I have a foreign account, which means they are going to file a form, despite it being completely blank minus my name.  Other than that, I simply have to file my W2 and 1099T.  Why can they file a completely blank form and then charge me to upgrade to deluxe for it?

Since you have so little to report, clear and start over in your return and start fresh. Go to tax tools>clear and start over.
