@Cheri Briscoe So sorry for your loss. It seems like you are asking about using one of the online "Live" versions of the software so that you can get one on one help with your tax return. You may need either online Live Premier or Full Service Premier since you say you had a rental property.

And some information:
For the year that your spouse died, you can still file a joint return. That way, you will get the married filing jointly standard deduction of $25,100 (+ $1300 for each spouse 65 or older) which will lower the amount of income you are taxed on.
In My Info, you will need to indicate that your spouse died. When his name is in My Info, there is a screen early in the interview that asks "Do any of these apply to [name] ?’” where you will do that, and then a drop down will appear where you can enter the date he passed.
If you have dependent children still living at home, you will be able to file as a qualified widow for the next two years after this tax return.
