We have been using the Premier level and file jointly. I am self-employed, but I am the only employee, so it is pretty simple. Is there any benefit to moving to the home and business? Can I still file jointly for home and business?

    Yes, you can still file jointly.   The only difference between desktop Premier and Home & Business is that there is more on-screen guidance in the Home & Business version.   So, you will get more instant help entering business items if you switch.   But it isn't required - You can file a Self-Employed Schedule C form with either version.
