How do i file a 1040A instead of deluxe? In the past years i have filed deluxe but no longer need to. My situation has changed and i should be able to file a 1040A.

You will have to clear and start over. Follow the instructions below in order to do this:

  • Make sure you are signed into your account
  • Select Take me to my return 
  • On the left side menu, select Tax Tools
  • Then select Clear & Start Over
  • Select Yes to confirm that you would like to start over

Then you will be asked which version of TurboTax you would like to use. You can then select the Free Version and begin your return using 1040A.
