TurboLive/?: does it include everything that Self-emp offers? I file extension in April & complete my taxes before the Oct deadline, will access still be available then?

When I work on my taxes in the summer, will there be someone still to answer my questions if I use Turbotax Live?

This question is for Turbotax rather than the community I would think, but since I'm overseas I had no other way to reach out directly to turbotax--they should fix that issue.

Yes, TurboTax Live does include everything TurboTax Self-Employed does because it is an upgrade, or additional cost.

The features of TurboTax Live include:

• Help from a tax expert when you have questions about your return.
• Get a review of your return by an expert before you file, at your request.
• Covers all of the forms and tax situations that our most all-encompassing version, TurboTax Self-Employed, does. 

Access to a TurboTax specialist is included with Self-Employed. TurboTax specialists are available to provide:

• General customer help and support using the TurboTax product. 
• SmartLook on-screen help is available on a PC, laptop or the TurboTax mobile app. 
• Service, area of expertise, experience levels, wait times, hours of operation and availability vary, and are subject to restriction and change without notice.

Yes, if you file an extension in April, TurboTax experts are available through October 15, 2018.
