Self employed for 4 months but not planning on filing business expenses, do I still need to choose the 'self-employed' tax filing option?

I moved to Canada in March 2019 and worked freelance (for one company) March-June. I was then employed full time from July-December.

 

I'm not planning on filing any business expenses for my time as a freelancer. I was living in a house with 5 other people so claiming anything like internet or utilities will be so negligible and my phone wasn't ever used for business purposes. 

 

I'm planning on using the 'Let us do it' TurboTax filing solution because this is my first time filing Canadian taxes and my situation is a little complicated. The self-employed option for 'Let us do it' costs $80 more than the non-self employed option. Do I still need to select the self-employed option considering it was only for 4 months and I'm not planning on filing business expenses?
