I'm assuming you are referring to the remainder of the amortization after you previously claimed the startup on your previous return.  To enter the amortization you will follow these steps in TurboTax Business:

 

  1. Under the Assets expense for your business and you must select to 'Add an asset' once you reach the Business Asset Summary page.
  2. Select Intangibles, Other property on the Describe This Asset page.
  3. Select Amortizable intangibles on the Tell Us a Little More page
  4. Type Start up Costs as the description, then the cost remaining from previous return to be amortized and the date you opened for business
  5. Code selection is 195 Business Start Up Costs
  6. Enter 15 years (if this is not the first year you will list the remaining years showing on your previous return) for the Useful Life (in Years)
