How do I use freedom edition when self employed but making less than 33k? I tried creating a new account already and it still tries to make me upgrade.

Please view the link below for information on qualifications to file for free, you can follow the directions in the TurboTax FAQ below.https://ttlc.intuit.com/replies/4217412

You need a completely different account and user ID to use Free File.

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
