Per the IRS, you can deduct all ordinary and necessary business expenses to produce business income:

That is to say, if your expense is common and accepted in your business, and helpful and appropriate, you can deduct it

See Reporting Business Income and Deductions to view a list of specific business expenses you may be able to deduct.

You will not be able to deduct business expenses in TurboTax Deluxe You will need to upgrade to TurboTax Self Employed Online, where you can enter business expenses in the below area.
