Where do I enter depreciable assets?
I started a new business in 2022 and purchased some expensive machinery that I'd like to depreciate. The Turbo Tax desktop software is confusing me, and I can't figure-out how to enter these assets. Under business expenses, I entered the items under "other common business expenses", because I didn't see any other suitable category. Next, when walking through the wizard for "Business Assets - Business property that is depreciated", it asks me several questions that lead me to believe we're on the way to depreciating these assets. However, it notes that I should not have already listed them in "other", and it never asks me about the expenses. I tried removing them from "other", but the wizard still goes through the end without ever asking me what the assets are. I called Turbo Tax support and was told that I need to open the IRS form 4562 and fill it out myself. I don't believe that is right, since the UI has a questionnaire specifically for this topic, and I didn't buy Turbo Tax to fill out forms myself. I was also told that I could pay extra to talk to someone to learn how to fill out that form. Does Turbo Tax for Home and Business have a place for me to enter these assets, and where?
