Self-employment tax

I have an IRS-granted ministerial exemption (since 1992) for work I do as a missionary - and so do not owe self-employment tax on that. That income is reported to me on a 1099 NEC.

 

However, I also have income as a freelancer for non-ministry work. However, for some reason I can't figure out how to get TurboTax to include self-employment for that tax, while not calculating it for the ministry income.

 

I can't find where I input my exemption initially into Turbo-Tax years ago - as it just seems to carry over for all business income.

 

I am using Turbo-Tax home and business. Should I have a different version.

 

Any help would be appreciated.
