Can you make a 179 deduction using Turbo Delux?

[handbhart]

I'm trying to deduct my work truck that I purchased in 2023, which I used +60% of time for work.  Can I file this deduction using TurbuTax Delux or must I upgrade?

If you are using the TurboTax Deluxe desktop CD/Download edition you can report both your income and expenses for self-employment using that edition.  So it will accept a 179 deduction.

Just a note though, when going through the program and you are entering your SE income and expenses the program will recommend that you upgrade to the Home & Business Edition.  That is Only a recommendation and is Not required.
