Deductions & credits

Here is the solution for entering your other medical expenses along with the self employed health insurance. And thank you for bringing this forward.

 

In TurboTax Desktop first remove the self employed health insurance in your business expenses. Be sure to complete the section going through all screens until you are back at the beginning of that section, then continue. 

 

This will allow you to enter your medical expenses in the Step-by-Step. Next, go to the personal Deductions & Credits to enter all other medical expenses. Once this is completed, again finish this section of your return. Go back to your business and select Edit beside your business. Then  go back to update Other Common Business Expenses. Add back your self employed health insurance amount. 

 

This completes the process in Step-by-Step so that you can continue and finish your return. This experience does not happen in TurboTax Online.
