If you report your wife's income as self-employed income and do not claim expenses, you can use Turbo Tax Deluxe. if she claims expenses, then you would need to upgrade to Turbo Tax Self-employed.

Thanks for the previous response. Since my wife will claim expenses, I bought the downloadable version from Amazon for "TurboTax Home & Business 2022 Software". I was able to enter the information for my employer, including w2, etc. However, I am having a hard time finding were to add my wife self employed information for her cleaning services. Should I be able to add this information with this version of TurboTax?

Yes. you would add it in the Business Section of TurboTax Home and Business.  There is a Personal Section where your add W-2's, interest income, 1099's etc. and a Business Section where you will create you Schedule C.  It will say "Tell us about your business and it should help walk you through filling out her Schedule C, which is where you report income for self employment.
