@sgh7568 asked: "I was told that a CPA would review my returns (free) and wanted to have this done before I file. How is this done?"
Told by whom? And why did they say it was "free?" A review by CPA/EA normally requires an upgrade to Live TurboTax. Live Deluxe is $120 for a Federal return and $55 for a state return. You appear to be using regular Deluxe (at least that is what is displayed underneath your question), which is $60 for a Federal return and $50 for s state return. If you choose to pay any fees out of the Federal refund, there is an additional $40 service fee ($45 for California filers), that can be avoided by paying upfront with credit/debit card.

After completing both the fed and state returns, I ended up owing $ on both.
Due to this, T-T said I qualified to have someone give my returns a once-over.
Kind of a booby prize I guess.
