Amend Schedule C in TurboTax Home & Business

I need to amend my Schedule C (home office). I see that there is no option to modify Schedule C (Home Office) in the software. Please guide me on how to do it using the Home & Business software (Windows). 

As you can see in the images, there is no option to edit Schedule C (Home Office) to amend.

@TheWisdom , do you mean amend ( ONLY when your return has been accepted and processed ) or edit the Schedule-C ( i.e not yet filed) ? 

Schedule-C is included in the business section / Tab of the software 9 Home & Business).

Home Office expenses are generally not allowed unless you are self-employed and use the space/ facilities  exclusively and all the time. If you are wage earner , it is not allowed any more.

Amended return should wait will  IRS and the State has accepted and processed your return ( when you have received your refund or at least  three to four weeks have passed from the "accepted" fro processing date.

 

Does this make sense ?  Am I misunderstanding your query ?  Is there more specific answer you need ?

I don't think you have to use that list of items.  Those are common things.  You can now just go to the area you want and make your changes like normal.

I filed for 2022 (Feb 2023) and would like to amend 2 items related to self-employment: (1) form 8829 home office. Would like to change the value of my home and land (lines 37 and 38) (2) self-employed health insurance. I forgot to include my wife's medicare Part B premiums. Don't know how to get started because these items don't show in the menu.

Thanks, Critter-3. I should have guessed that I could skip the fancy menu stuff and just click "amend" and go to forms. Turbo Tax made it easy.
