Get your taxes done using TurboTax
No, do not delete anything. If the Schedule C has a loss, you can't enter a health insurance deduction for that business. For the K-1, the S Corporation can either purchase the policy in your name or reimburse you for the premiums you paid.
You may be able to use the Self-Employed Health Insurance (SEHI) deduction if you're at least a 2% shareholder in an S Corporation. To claim this deduction, the health insurance premiums must be paid or reimbursed by the S corporation and reported as taxable compensation in box 1 of your W-2.
To claim the SEHI deduction in TurboTax, you'll need the K-1 that the S Corporation sent you. Here's how to enter it and claim the deduction:
- With your return open in TurboTax, search for K-1 and select the Jump to link.

- On the Self-Employed Health Insurance screen, fill in the W-2 box 5 amount and the amount of health insurance premiums you paid (this may be on your W-2 in box 14).
