Deductions & credits

Thanks for your reply.  Yes,   I already tried that.. after selecting schedule A from the FORMS option, it would not allow me to select the box in schedule A..  I;ve gotten used to doing most everything manually on TurboTax the last few years but not allowing manual input was a first.  I tried another option suggested and it worked but I'm not happy with what I found or the workaround...had all my deductions listed as ZERO until i selected itemized. The fact that I have to get help for something as basic as this is disappointing.   I tried FreeTax after these problems and it works better and without the problems and cost of TurboTax.
