Yes, I have the same issue on Apple Mac (Downloaded)

I am a Real Estate Agent who received a 1099-NEC from my broker. Reported income as Self-employment in

Business Income. When I go to Deducte for my Health Insurance, the TURBO TAX PROGRAM kicks me out from inputting any of my Health Insurance. IT SOUNDS LIKE PROGRAM ERROR. Thank you.

Are you going through the steps below? @Tina100 Starting in the Business tab and choosing the main Business Income and Expenses screen. Then go to:

Profit and Loss from Business Schedule C - Update
Name of your RE agent business - Edit
Other Common Business Expenses - Update
Insurance Payments - Start/Edit
Health Insurance Premiums - Start/Edit
Enter the amounts

Where do I enter my self-employed health insurance expense?
