The Basic Edition is a desktop product (CD/download). Like all of the desktop products, it contains all the usual Federal forms. However, it does NOT include a state program, and it cannot import from ItsDeductible.
You can see the list of forms here:

The desktop products differ mainly in the amount of help and guidance. Desktop products can prepare multiple returns, and there is a limit of 5 free Federal efiles. Any additional Federal returns have to be printed and mailed.
Most desktop products include a state program (Basic does NOT). Deluxe may or may not include a state program--it comes in 2 versions--one that is Fed only, and one that is Fed and State. If purchased from TurboTax, Deluxe includes both Fed and State. If purchased elsewhere, one has to be careful.
With the state program, one can prepare multiple returns of that one state. There is a 24.99 state efile fee for each efiled state return. There is no efile fee for New York state. There is no fee to print and mail the state returns.
