You recommend I use the premier version, even though the past several years I end up taking the standard deduction. Is it really necessary?

[PaulaM · Accepted solution]

It depends on the other details of your return. Some of the forms that require Premier are:

• Schedule D
• Schedule E
• K-1 forms
• 1099-B
• Sale of Business Property
• Farm Rental Income/Expense

The list above is not all of the forms that require the use of Premier. If you have been prompted to upgrade to Premier, you likely had a form/schedule that called for it. If your situation has changed, you can always begin in TurboTax Deluxe and upgrade later if you need to.
