Why am I being asked to upgrade to Premier when Standard has worked perfectly fine over the past years? It was much easier with CD installation, too.

Do you have any investments, or are you reporting any foreign income? In 2021, TurboTax optimized its editions to ensure that our customers are getting access to the forms needed to make the most out of every individual's tax situation and to respect his accuracy guarantee of the calculation. Since certain claims/expenses were moved to the appropriate edition. TurboTax is better able to guide our customers through their filing journey and ensure that no credits or deductions are missed. If we detect that your tax situation requires expanded coverage depending on what your tax situation was last year, you will be prompted to upgrade.

Thank you for choosing TurboTax.

Hi Turbo TaxAniqua,

Thank you for your response. 

Yes, I do have some retirement investments, but I have previously just entered the information from those T-slips and they have always worked with the Standard version.  In my opinion the Standard version was easy to use and filled all my tax needs.  

If, as you say, certain claims/expenses were moved to “more appropriate editions”, does the 2024 Standard version retain all the functions of previous editions?

I hope that I can still manage with Standard.  This is the first time I’ve tried it without the CD, and I must say that I find downloading is not as simple a process.

Thank you again for your response

Alan
