I am filing taxes and it says 0$ for lifetime learning credits, but then when I go to file my taxes it says I must upgrade to the deluxe version for 80 bucks because I have the lifetime learning credit. I have the 1098-T form but didnt fill out the 8863 form.

If you entered the 1098-T, Form 8863 was generated by TurboTax.   Delete Form 8863 and if you are not reporting scholarship income, you can delete the 1098-T as well.   Then try to e-file again without upgrading.   If you already upgraded, you can downgrade back to Free after the education credit form is removed.
