I have entered my 1099-NEC for Doordash driving but when I get to the milage and expenses Turbo Tax insists I upgrade to enter the milage info. It says "Upgrade to TurboTax Premium and uncover 33%
more deductions" and the only options I am given at the bottom are "Upgrade" and " I dont have expenses"

Why can't I put in my expenses without upgrading? Why do taxes have to be like pulling teeth? Turbo tax is supposed to be easy but I feel like they are just trying to irritate me into paying them more.

Here's why TurboTax asks you to upgrade to the Premium version to enter mileage and expenses:

TurboTax Premium is designed to handle self-employment income and expenses, including those related to work like DoorDash,

It includes all the necessary forms and features to accurately report your income and maximize your deductions, such as Schedule C
Upgrading ensures you get the most out of your tax return by uncovering additional deductions and providing step-by-step guidance tailored to self-employed individuals
While it might seem like an extra cost, it could ultimately save you money by ensuring you claim all eligible deductions.

Let me know if you have any other questions.
