TurboTax offers a few different packages depending on what kind of assistance you need. If you don’t have a ton of investments and complicated assets, and just want to make sure you’re not leaving any money on the table, chances are you’ll want the $49 Deluxe software, which searches over 350 different deductions to help maximize your return. Or, if you need some assistance when it comes to your income from investments and rental properties, you’ll want to upgrade to the $74 Premier package. And if you run your own business, you’ll want to go with the $99 Self-Employed package. It’s optimized for freelancers, contractors and business owners, and it helps you maximize your return with industry-specific deductions.

And if you need more than just software, TurboTax offers some more involved assistance options. With Live Assistance packages, which start at $119 for the Deluxe package, you can get live feedback from an expert as you file as well as a final review to make sure you didn’t miss anything. Or, if you’d rather skip the headache altogether, you can have an expert file for you with a Full Service package. Prices start at $249 for the Deluxe package. TurboTax does offer more affordable Basic-tier packages, but those packages won’t help you maximize deductions, so you may not get your full return amount, and they’re not discounted as a part of this sale.
