Question

Can I get help file please?

I filed my Taxes with IRS Free file but it keeps sending me to self employed. I need this fix. I don't have money to pay you guys.

If you entered self-employment income that is why it upgraded to Self-Employed.  The Free Edition cannot support self employment income.  Did you enter income that was on a 1099Misc?

 

If you qualify to use it, there is another full-featured free version of the software:

Try Free File: 

You qualify if your income was $36,000 or less, or $69,000 or less if active duty military, or if you qualify for Earned Income Credit

Note:  If you do not qualify to use Free File then you will have to upgrade to Deluxe or higher in the paid versions of the software.   

Online Deluxe $60  State software $50

 

 

Or—-Use this IRS site for other ways to file for free

You said you already filed?  With IRS Free File website?  Then what are you trying to do now in Turbo Tax?

I suspect @enen90 is using the word "filed" to mean he filled in the data, since he says it keeps putting him into Self-Employed.

 

@enen90   Did you e-file?    And did you  really use the IRS Free File site---or did you start out in Free Edition on the TurboTax site and not notice until later that you were not in the free software?
