Hello @craigstinton-hot,
Welcome aboard to the Community. I have some information regarding the Self-Employed version's capability.
Yes, this product is ideal for freelancers and independent contractors in need of federal tax support. The software provides tools for tracking taxes and is incredibly easy to use.
You can track tax information each time you record and categorize a transaction. QuickBooks includes the data as part of your federal estimated quarterly tax payments.
There are flexible plans available on our website that you can visit to know more about the features. Here's the link: https://quickbooks.intuit.com/self-employed/.
Additionally, I recommend visiting the following article to learn more about federal estimated quarterly taxes, as well as the specific taxes that QuickBooks will not calculate: How QuickBooks Self-Employed tracks self-employment taxes.
Drop me a comment below if you need more details about the features and how to track the taxes. I'll be happy to help you some more.
