Deductions & credits

Yes, you can deduct subscriptions (software, apps, publications) used for your Schedule C business if they are "ordinary and necessary" for your operations. 

 

In TurboTax, enter these under Business Expenses > Other Common Business Expenses > Other Miscellaneous Expenses. For hybrid (personal/business) use, only deduct the business percentage.

 

Under current law, Employee Business Expenses are no longer deductible, with rare exceptions.

 

See this tax tips article for more information about reporting self- employed business deductions.
