I'm itemizing my expenses as self-employed and have listed my business from the start. I've not had this problem in prior years of using this site.

If you are taking actual expenses instead of the standard mileage rate for your business automobile, you can enter them in the Vehicle Expense section of Schedule C. If you are using the mileage rate but have parking and tolls to report, you can also enter those expenses.

 

If you are using a Desktop version of TurboTax, enter the expenses in the interview (step-by-step or Easy Step mode) rather than directly on a worksheet in Forms Mode. If you try to enter something directly on a worksheet on a line or in a field that is programmed for a calculation instead of a direct entry, TurboTax won't allow the entry in that field.

 

Go back to your Schedule C business and locate Business Vehicle Expenses, then continue through the questions until you find the item you need to adjust.

 

Also, if you need to add other expenses such as parking and tolls, that question appears at the end of the Expenses interview screens.
