If you see a charge from TurboTax when you are about to finish filing your return, your discount has not been applied. To fix this, go to your Lyft driver dashboard and access TurboTax from either the Tax information or Accelerate Rewards to access TurboTax through your Lyft driver dashboard. Finish your tax return and get to the Review your order screen (in the File section). You'll now see your complimentary billing status along with the message, Your discount has been applied.

Please note that our agents are unable to apply or issue refunds for Lyft partner discounts if the return was prepared at the regular TurboTax.com site. You must start TurboTax from your Lyft dashboard and then always access TurboTax through the link on that dashboard, anytime you work on your TurboTax return.

Well I started it from the regular turbotax site, why the hell do I have to redo my form. I know you make millions of dollars a year, why cannot just import the information instead of deleting and re-entering. Next year I will not use turbotax.
