Being charged self-employed, I am not self-employed.

My tax return is being charged under Turbo Tax Self-employed and an error comes up preventing me from filing my return stating “Your province of self-employment is different from your province of residence”. I am not self-employed and the box for self-employed is unchecked. I have been through my tax return several times and there is nothing I can find that states anything about self-employment. I need help troubleshooting this or if there is a customer service line I can contact.

How do I change the Turbo Tax edition from self-employed to the regular edition?

Troubleshooting

@Keith1940 Unfortunately, once you have upgraded or added features to your TurboTax return, there is no way to downgrade or remove the extra features. You would need to create a new return to go back to the original product. 

 

To start a new return, select “Start a New Return” from under “My Returns” in the top left corner. Once you have started your new return, you can select “View All Returns” from under “My Accounts & Returns”. Then delete the unwanted return by clicking the small Trash Can next to it or “Delete” under the return’s name.
