Can I deduct the cost of turbotax home and business 2015 on my schedule C under professional expenses?

No, to deduct tax preparation fees, you must itemize deductions on Schedule A, and the sum total of your miscellaneous deductions including your fees must exceed 2% of your Adjusted Gross Income.

Given the above limitations you may not be able to benefit from your tax prep expenses.

To enter tax preparation fees:

  • Type in tax preparation fees, the search box, top right of your screen, then click the magnifying glass
