I worked for Wag!, a dog walking app in 2018. I have my 1099. It's saying I need to upgrade to Deluxe, but I already have the $19.99 version. Is upgrading necessary?

Yes, you cannot enter a 1099 in the free version (see below for what you can do in the free version). 

 If your total income is below $34,000 then you may want to use the Turbotax FREEDOM edition.  This is free based on income and includes all forms available through TurboTax https://turbotax.intuit.com/taxfreedom/


"Is TurboTax Free Edition really free?

Yes, we guarantee you’ll pay nothing to file your simple federal and state taxes.

Join the millions who file for $0

50 million hard-working taxpayers can file their simple federal and state taxes for free. You can file with TurboTax Free Edition if you only have the following situations:

  • W-2 income
  • Limited interest and dividend income reported on a 1099-INT or 1099-DIV
  • Claim the standard deduction
  • Earned Income Tax Credit (EIC)
  • Child tax credits

Situations not covered in TurboTax Free Edition include:

  • Itemized deductions (Schedule A)
  • Business or 1099-MISC income (Schedule C)
