I’m being charged for my return . Believe due to Filing State. How do I delete it

Your post indicates that you are using the TurboTax Self-Employed online edition at $90.  The state program is an additional $40.

If you do not need the Self-Employed edition then clear your tax return and start over.

 

If you have not paid for the online edition you are using, have not filed your tax return or registered the Free edition, then you can clear your return and start over with a lower priced edition. Click on Tax Tools on the left side of the program screen while working on the 2020 online tax return. Click on Clear & Start Over.


Note - If you have entered a Form 1099-MISC with income shown in box 7 of the form or a Form 1099-NEC with income in box 1, this would indicate to the program that you are self-employed, thereby requiring the use of the Self-Employed edition to report the income and expenses for your self-employment.
