I started a self-employment side gig in Jan 2021. Should I get the Self-Employment Edition of Turbo Tax for my 2020 taxes so that I can get year-round help for my 2021 taxes?

I like the idea of having help through the year with self employment issues such as franchise tax, sales tax, property tax, expenses, deductions, etc.   

Does the Self-Employment Edition help with those situations?

If so, do I need to get the Self-Employment Edition for my 2020 taxes even though I do not technically need it until 2021 taxes are due?

 

Or I do my 2020 taxes with Deluxe or Premiere, then start my 2021 taxes now and utilize the Self Employment Edition?
