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

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?
I was given option to file with IRS free file Program since I qualify. I only made $11,000 for the year 2019.
Why does TurboTax keeps changing to Self-Employed and wants me to Pay $200? Can you show me a way to finalize my tax without being charged. I am not even getting a refund.
IRS free file program delivers by turbotax. But it changes to Self employed file and charges me at the end. Why?
