Are you trying to report a Casualty loss on Federal form 4684?
This TurboTax Help states:
One way to get help with your expenses if you were impacted by a natural disaster is to take the tax break for your casualty loss.

A casualty loss is officially defined as “the damage, destruction or loss of your property from any sudden, unexpected or unusual event such as a flood, hurricane, tornado, fire, earthquake or even volcanic eruption.” The loss can be from a natural or man-made disaster.
