I am going step by step through business deductions, but there was nowhere to enter such things as gas, car washes, phone, etc.

    To find additional expense categories you can follow these steps:

    1. Within your tax return use the magnifying glass icon to search for Schedule C
    2. Click the Jump to link
    3. Click Edit for the line of work
    4. Scroll down to Expenses and click Start or Edit if the category you want is shown
      • If you don't see the category you want listed click Add expenses for this work
      • Scroll to and mark the box for the category of expense you want to add - if you don't see it on the list, scroll down to the Less Common section and click the down arrow and show more until you do
      • Click Continue
    5. Enter your expenses either as totals for each category or you can list out the different items (ie. email, website, etc.)
