I began filing with the deluxe option. After adding that i had a 1099-DIV and a 1098-T as well as other school deductions, I was told I need to upgrade to the Premier option. Later I realized that as a dependent I cannot claim my 1098-T or other education expenses. Can I downgrade back to the deluxe, or is premier still required for my 1099-DIV?

You can enter the 1099Div in Deluxe. Don't know why you had to upgrade to Premier for any of that.

You can try to downgrade. But you will have to start over https://ttlc.intuit.com/replies/3288495
