" I am using turbotax business but I didn't see any selection for type of business."

The selection is one of the first screens after you choose to start a new return without transferring a return from the previous tax year (see screenshot).

If you transfer a return from a previous tax year, the current return will be the same type as that of the previous year.

Either way, you cannot change the return type after you start or transfer a return; you need to start from scratch.
