Additional federal returns

You can complete and file as many tax returns as needed with the Basic edition.  There are 5 free federal e-files included with the purchase of the software.  Any return over the 5 have to be printed and mailed.

To start another tax return, click on the File menu at the top left of the desktop program screen.  Click on New Tax Return.

You are right.  I bought the physical disk for Home & Business and on the back 5 Federal returns is checked off under all versions, Basic included.  If she lives in another state, I think it may not include a 2nd state, but should include 5 federal and 5 for the same one state.
