How do I fill Schedule 1, Line 24, Option h, "Attorney fees and court costs..."? I am in the "Open form" section but can't enter a #. How do I do this with the client?

I am using Turbotax Premier Client (Apple) and I have completed all my Tax.  The only thing remaining is to fill out the "Attorney fees and court costs for actions involving certain unlawful discrimination claims".  While I am in the form Schedule 1, I am unable to click anything on the form and add this on Line 24H.  I cannot find a magnifying glass?

Legal fees related to whistleblower claims or unlawful discrimination claims are deductible on Form 1040. 

 

To enter the fees so that they appear on Line 24K of Schedule 1, in TurboTax Desktop,

 

  1. Select Forms in the top right
  2. In the left column (Forms in My Return) tap Schedule 1
  3. Highlight line 24h and tap the magnifying glass
  4. Scroll up to the Other Adjustments to Income Smart Worksheet between lines 23 and 24
  5. Enter your amount on line K
