Self-Emplyment Turbo Tax version
Hi. I haven't yet bought my TurboTax version for this year, but have been using for 20+ years. I have usually used TT Deluxe, for my full time job and some limited self-employment with a few expenses (supplies, car mileage, biz use of home). Now retired, get SS and still do a little self-employment. I was searching to see if I can use the Basic version instead of the Deluxe version, but then I got even more of a confusing answer from Turbo Tax Help:
If you have business expenses to report, you'll need TurboTax Self-Employed or TurboTax Live Self-Employed to file a Schedule C. If you don't have business expenses to write off and need to file a Schedule C, you can use TurboTax Deluxe, TurboTax Live Deluxe, TurboTax Premier, or TurboTax Live Premier.
This seems to imply that you need to use TT SE, and can't use TTDeluxe that I have always used to file Schedule C even though I always had some expenses. Is this a change, is this not 'really' true. Won't buy till I know. I wonder if you can still use, but just don't get as much guidance that is often the case with TT, however this statement above seems to say you can't use TTDeluxe if you have biz expenses, and I was thinking I might be able to use TTBasic, not have to pay even more to use TTSE...not what I was hoping for. Please clarify if you can.
