Do you need Self-Employed--do you have income from self-employment or from being an independent contractor?
If not, you can clear and start over in a lower version--but you will start from scratch https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/2586254-how-do-i-clear-and-start-over
Is there a chance that you qualify to use the Freedom Edition?
You cannot enter a 1099Misc or self-employment income when you are using the Free Edition. If you qualify, there is another free software program available from TurboTax which will allow you to enter self-employment income.
Try Free File:
You qualify if your income was $34,000 or less, or $66,000 or less if active duty military, or if you qualify for Earned Income Credit
