If you haven't filed, registered or paid you can try to clear and start over

Or you could just leave this account and start a new account. Online is only good for 1 return. But you can use the same email address for 5 accounts. How to start another return in the Online version

Oh, if that was just for one of the beginning questions don't worry about that. You don't need to enter a W2. Just skip the W2 parts.

What kind of 1099 did you get? A 1099Misc?

That is self employment income.

You can enter Self Employment Income into Online Deluxe or Premier but if you have any expenses you will have to upgrade to the Self Employed version.

Or There is also The Turbo Tax Free File program which is free for federal and state. And has more forms than the Federal Free Edition, like Schedules A, B, C , D, E, F, EIC, H, K-1, SE, etc.

To qualify for the Free File website you just need to meet one of these 3 things.

AGI $36,000 or less.

Active duty military with AGI of $69,000 or less

OR qualify for EIC (earned income credit.)

In order to use the Free File program, you have to start it at a special website. Try signing in at the top right.
