 you chose to enter your beginning and ending mileage for 2016, you can use the steps below to get back to that area to make any changes. When you arrive back to the screen, simply change the number in the "Beginning of the Year Mileage" and continue.

To Enter Your Vehicle Mileage:

1. Select "Federal Taxes" at the top of the page

2. Select the "Deductions & Credits" sub-tab

3. Scroll down to "Employment Expenses" and select "Show More"

4. Select "Start/Revisit" next to " Job Expenses for W-2 Income "

5. Select "Edit" next to your occupation(Or enter it when asked)

6. Enter your vehicle info or select “Edit” next to it

7. After you are finished entering the vehicle you should arrive to a screen asking about mileage

8. Continue answering the questions until you arrive to a screen asking "How Do You Want to Enter Your Mileage for Your Vehicle? and choose "I'll enter my beginning and ending odometer readings for 2016."

9. Make any changes and continue
