If you want to remove Premium Services, you need to do so before completing your order and before using any of the features, though you won’t have to clear and start over. Here's how to delete Premium Services from your order.

  1. Open or continue your return
  2. Select File in the left-hand menu to view the final steps before filing
  3. Select Revisit next to Step 1-You've chosen to deduct your TurboTax fees from your federal refund
  4. Scroll down to the Premium Services Benefits section and select Remove
  5. Select Remove and Pay With Card
  6. Select View Payment Options
  7. On the How would you like to pay for TurboTax screen select Pay Now (Pay with Federal Refund is only available with the Premium Services bundle)

Anyone working on deductions it will pop up with a charge to itemize deductions on the free version. DO NOT SELECT this or you will never be able to go back to the free version.  You will not get more by itemizing being the standard deduction unless the number shown is greater than what is shown in standard.  

You will then have to pay for both the federal and the state.   

The only way to resolve is to use another tax filing service that offers free filing. 

- Which is what I am having to do after 20 years of using turbo tax. 

 

Hope this helps someone from making this costly mistake. 


What free filing service did you switch to?  $209 for mine is absurd!

No absolutely do not see that still. Thanks for making it so hard to cancel a simple membership! Last time I’ll be on here.
