As a freelancer, tax season is a multi-week dread that starts as soon as the first 1099 hits your inbox. If you’re like me and literally hate everything about tax time, the goal is always the same: get it over with as quickly and painlessly as possible without leaving money on the table.

Right now, you can grab TurboTax Desktop Deluxe 2025 (Federal & State) for $55.99 at Amazon. That’s 30% off the $79.99 list price, which is a solid way to use some holiday gift card balance on something you're actually going to need in a few weeks.

This version is specifically designed for people who need to maximize deductions. It searches for over 375 deductions and credits (including home office expenses and charitable donations) to make sure you're getting your biggest possible refund. It also includes five federal e-files and one state download, and it can import your info from last year's return, so you don't have to manually retype every detail.

Just a heads up for my fellow early birds: while the software is available to download now, some specific tax forms might not be finalized by the IRS until mid-February, so you might see a "pending" message on certain sections if you try to file today.
