I was self-employed part of the year; lived in CT and worked part of the time in CT and part of the time in NY. What product should I get?

I have been self-employed for several years & have had a home office.  I have used Turbo Tax Deluxe successfully each year.  This year is more complicated since my self employment in CT ended in April; I was then a self employed consultant in NY for 3 months and now I am an employee at a CT company.  I am concerned about the best product to use.

For 2016, you can use TurboTax Deluxe (or Premier) if your business only claims standard vehicle mileage, phone expenses, and/or miscellaneous expenses up to $100, but that does not describe most self-employed businesses.

TurboTax Home and Business provides full support for Schedules C and C-EZ.

The Home and Business version supports additional business expenses, including home offices and depreciation, and provides additional coaching to maximize your business-related deductions.
