Yes, you can use the TurboTax Deluxe desktop version that you have now for a small business.

Thank you.  I was concerned because everywhere I read it stated to use the Home and Business version and yet the Deluxe allowed me to fill out the schedule C and 2289 Forms and seemed to work.

Perfect!  And, you're welcome.

Would you know why it seems like the Home and Business version is being pushed in lieu of the Deluxe version when it appears both work?
