Deductions & credits

Unfortunately, personal casualty and theft has been repealed with TCJA, unless it is in a Presidentially Declared Disaster Area. Your business loss can be entered on Form 4684.

 

Use a separate Form 4684, Section B, Part I, for each casualty or theft involving property used in a trade or business or for income-producing purposes. Use one Section B, Part II, to combine all Sections B, Part I.

 

How to enter it into TurboTax: While inside the software and working on your return, type casualty loss in the Search at the top of the screen (you may see a magnifying glass there).  There will be a popup that says Jump to casualty loss.  Select that to get to the general area.
