(requires transferring data from your tax software to the state website)
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.

Works even on old hardware that is otherwise ineligible for the official Win11 upgrade path. The Win11 install inherits your Win10 activation, so is a legit upgrade.

So, might be worth looking into a professional to do taxes for you, as my total is $55 more to do my own taxes with only a W-2 and some 1099-INTs. Also, it sucks that free file is income limited on the IRS website (you know, the place I'm paying all these taxes to), as I would love to take advantage of that, and I really don't understand the rationalization (I suppose good lobbying leads to irrational policy, or at least consumer unfriendly policies) to make it income based.
Personally, I find the hardest part is just gathering all the information, which you have to do with a pro anyway.
PS - there are cheaper DIY tax software options out there

If you used the desktop version last year, you can transfer that info into the online version.

TurboTax Advantage" auto renew, and TurboTax Deluxe. Same price. So they're the same thing, you can turn off the auto renew.
