We have a single form 1099 that included $1890 of expense remimbursement. I cannot seem to add the expense without being forced to upgrade to the next level of turbo tax Do I have to upgrade in order to take this deduction?

You wouldn't be able to claim any expenses in the 1099-MISC interview without upgrading to Self-Employed.

If the amount reported was purely a reimbursement of expenses and not undertaken as a for-profit activity, you could enter the expenses as a "negative" amount in the Other Reportable Income interview  (Federal Taxes > Wages and Income > Less Common Income > Miscellaneous Income). Description would be "1099-MISC Expense Reimbursement".
