Is it the retirement credit?  Just tell TurboTax you are a student  in My Info and you will get rid of the credit.

TurboTax Free Edition is very limited. It's only for the simplest tax returns. But if you have pension or IRA income on a 1099-R, with no complications, you can probably use Free Edition.


If your AGI is $73,000 or less you can probably use 
IRS Free File.

Yes that is it! Thank you

 

Will that affect anything adversely by saying we were students?
