A health insurance plan you are covered by as a retiree can qualify as self-employed health insurance, as long as the coverage wasn't paid by nontaxable retirement distributions. You could not use the insurance for an active employee as that would be an employer plan.   Medicare premiums you voluntarily pay to obtain insurance in your name that is similar to qualifying private health insurance can be used to figure the deduction. Amounts paid for health insurance coverage from retirement plan distributions that were nontaxable because you are a retired public safety officer can’t be used to figure the deduction.   But, don't include amounts for any month you were eligible to participate in a health plan subsidized by your employer or your spouse's employer or the employer of either your dependent or your child who was under the age of 27 at the end of 2025. This is discussed in the Instructions for Form 7206.   See this TurboTax tips article for more information about the self-employed health insurance deduction.   @hereinhelena

Arizona does make this determination based upon each taxpayer's circumstances.  You mentioned renting an apartment and changing your insurance to Arizona while you lived there. This indicates an intent to move to Arizona permanently.  But if this is not accurate and your move was only on a temporary basis, then you would be considered a nonresident of Arizona.     Per Arizona residency status guidelines in this link, if you reside in Arizona and intend to make it your new residence, you would be considered a resident, or part-year resident in your case.  However, if your move was only intended to be temporary, then you would be taxed in Arizona as a nonresident and would only be taxed on income that was earned from Arizona sources.

You cannot install two different personal TurboTax desktop programs for the same tax year on the same computer because it can cause conflicts. The software is designed to handle multiple returns (up to five federal) in one installation.   However, you can install TurboTax Business along with one other personal version, such as Premier, or Home & Business. If you need to prepare more than five federal returns, you must use a different computer, use the online version, or file by mail.  However, keep in mind that the IRS limits individuals to e-filing a maximum of five tax returns per software license, account, or email address. This is done for security and identification purposes.
