Are you using TurboTax Desktop or TurboTax Online? Do you want to upgrade or downgrade?

I’m using the online version for my daughter under 19, it was free and is now charging $15 and I want to downgrade. It is a super easy return, I don’t need any help.

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.

@Nancywagg The codes for TurboTax Online will not work with TurboTax Desktop & vice-versa. If you bought the wrong version, you can get a refund and then buy the one you need.

If you bought TurboTax from a retailer (ex: Costco, Staples, Walmart, etc), please use this form to get a refund

 

Make sure you add a clear screenshot or picture of your receipt, showing the date of purchase, name of the store, software you bought and price paid.

 

Thank you for choosing TurboTax.
