There was no deduction for exemptions for tax year 2018, so there is no corresponding line number on the 2018 version of Form 1040.  You can enter 0 into the Schedule J worksheet where it asks for your 2018 deduction for exemptions, if leaving it blank does not work.  

 

There were many changes to the 2018 tax laws and forms.  One key change was the increase of the standard deduction coupled with the elimination of dependent exemptions.  This link explains more about Tax Reform - Tax Reform Basics for Individuals and Families
