If I do not meet the itemized deduction amount, will I still be charged $39 even though I started with deluxe version?

I don't know if I will meet the itemized deduction amount.  I own a home but mortgage amount and taxes are now low.

Depending on your filing status. The standard deduction for married filing jointly rises to $12,700 for tax year 2017. For single taxpayers and married individuals filing separately, the standard deduction rises to $6,350 in 2017.  For heads of households, the standard deduction will be $9,350 for tax year 2017. If your itemized deduction is lower than the standard deduction. Then, it is best to take the standard deduction amount. If you exclude the mortgage information in the tax return, you may be able to downgrade TurboTax to the Free Edition.
