You can apply Amazon digital credits to save even more (YMMV). However it only applies to the "normal" listing; NOT the GC offer.

TT strongly pushes Premier and Home & Business but the fact is that TT Deluxe can handle every situation that these more expensive versions can. The only exception that I am aware of is the ability to create W2 and 1099 forms for employees in H&B.
Deluxe has everything for all investment types, everything for owners of rental properties, everything for self-employed (1099-NEC/Schedule C filers), everything for those who do itemized deductions.
The higher versions offer more guidance but Deluxe has all the forms required and will still walk you through all of it.
Note that Turbotax Online is completely different, Deluxe Online is purposely limited forcing more complex returns to use the more expenisve Online versions than Deluxe.

Absolutely! Make sure your brokerage firm is in the import list. The only issues I've experienced with TT is with municipal bonds and a K-1 partnership.

If you're a straight W-2 person, freetaxusa is probably a good choice. No need to overpay for something you don't need.

For those of us not buying apps, ebooks or renting videos this can add up to a nice little discount.

Thanks for the info.
For most people TT and H&R Block will be identical. If you have some special circumstances like running a business, being self employed, large investments, etc then one it the other might net you a little more or little less of a refund.
I've used H&R Block for the last 6 years and have run into little bugs or glitches every year (importing, EV tax credit error, etc) so bear that in mind, but they were all eventually fixed with software updates. I had to wait 4 extra weeks to file last year until they updated their software to process the EV credit properly.
Just inconvenient, but worth the $20 savings imo since I wasn't in a rush.
