For more information please see our TurboTax FAQ Why did I have to upgrade my TurboTax Online edition?
Unfortunately, there is no way to downgrade a TurboTax product once it has been upgraded. If you are using TurboTax Online, you’ll need to start a new return to change your 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.
Thank you for choosing TurboTax.
