Did not add medical expenses but turbotax has entered a previous years carry over number. DO NOT want to claim them this year as there's no benefit.

Just say no or continue without adding them. By using the Find icon at the top right of your return enter Medical Expenses then Go to make sure there are no ticks entered for expenses.

Did that, there are no boxes ticked.

On the summary page there are still medical expenses entered and it's asking for an upgrade to delux because of medical expenses. There is no way to delete these expenses and file for free.

Unfortunately, you may need to restart your return without transferring your past year's return's information. Once there is an upgrade the return cannot be downgraded.

here's the fun part, it was a brand new fresh return that was never upgraded from the free version yet stuck medical expenses in there that now can't be seen or removed.

If you said you used the same software last year, the information would be transferred when it entered your name and information.
