If I file a 1099-MISC, do I have to upgrade to TurboTax Deluxe? I would rather not if I can help it.

I'm in the middle of filing my taxes, and I keep receiving a window that informs me that I can't continue filing my taxes unless I upgrade to TurboTax Deluxe. I'm assuming this is because I had to file a 1099-MISC. Is there any way I can file without upgrading?

You have to file Form 1099-MISC with TurboTax Deluxe, TurboTax Premier, or TurboTax Self-Employed because TurboTax Federal Free Edition doesn't support Form 1099-MISC.
