What do you want to do? As I recall, QBSE comes in 2 flavors, one that includes TurboTax and one that does not. Both are a monthly subscription price.  You could simply renew your subscription. Or, purchase TurboTax home and business to install on your own computer or use TurboTax online self-employment version to prepare your return. Or, go to a different tax preparer.

Thanks Opus 17. It was always included when I paid for Turbotax after filing. It is very convenient but now they kind of hold me hostage until I pay.... which itself defeats the purpose of the government to postpone the tax deadline. I guess I have to figure out how to pay in advance for tax filing. Just need to make sure I get the same tax product as last year, and unfortunately they are not very clear about what options I have and don't make it easy to find stuff  on Turbotax 🙂

With all fairness I like the ease of use of QB Self-employed on the mobile app and desktop, and the seamless integration of paypal and all my bank accounts (with some glitches). I knew it was just a question of time that they try to make (more) money out of it. Curious to see what happens once I file, will I be able to cancel the additional subscription? Also, still waiting for them to try to charge for Mint.

Well in all fairness Intuit is a for profit public company ... they have to turn a profit to keep the shareholders happy.
