How the hell do you get the non $200 version?

Every damn year I set up this thing, spend hours and then when I get to the end it says I did some weird special version even though i didn't use max and it tries to charge +$200 just for the expert assistant

Review your fees (remove anything you don't need) and try to downgrade if you can. How do I downgrade to a different TurboTax Online product?

To review and remove fees, see How do I review my fees in TurboTax Online?

I fixed it by using FreeTaxUSA. Only spent $30 for their "deluxe" version and it had everything I needed to file. Also took 30 min compared to around 5 hours on turbotax
