W-2 employee but I also provide some consultancy for 1000$ per year aside. Which version should I buy to be able to declare this extra? No more incomes.

I feel it is absurd to pay  100$ only to add this little detail.

Do you have any expenses?   You can enter Self Employment Income into Online Deluxe or Premier but if you have any expenses you will have to upgrade to the Self Employed version.  Or use any of the Desktop programs.   All the Desktop programs have the same forms. You just get more help and guidance in the higher versions.

Any of the downloaded programs will work ... Deluxe if you have a state return to do or Basic if you don't ... 

 

2021 TURBOTAX  CD/DOWNLOAD (This requires a full PC or Mac—-cannot be used on a mobile device)

You can also purchase the CD/download from various retailers such as Costco, Amazon, Walmart, Best Buy, Staples, Sam’s Club, etc. etc. etc.

 

This link Where can I obtain authentic TurboTax software? has a list of authorized TurboTax resellers.

 

When you use desktop software, there is an additional fee to e-file a state return.  You can avoid that fee if you print, sign and mail the state return.  The state e-file fee is $19.99 and increases in March.
