I have problems going to the exactly section I want to go, such as SEP-IRA.

I did use the "search" to search for where I can find SEP-IRA. The first time the AI says "type in SEP in search area and then go to retirement section." The problem is that I am not sure how to go to the retirement section. Then, I did search again, no AI the second time, but there were just whole bunch of answers in the community popping up.....

Enter self-employed retirement in the Search box located in the upper right of the program screen. Click on Jump to self-employed retirement

Or -

Click on Tax Tools on the left side of the online program screen
Click on Tools

Thank you for the reply, but I'm still not having the exactly results as your steps:

1. I did type in self-employed retirement, but there is no "jump to self-employed retirement" option underneath.

2. So, I tried to find the "Tax Tools" on the left side of the screen, but there is no such options/tabs there.

Are you using the TurboTax online web-based editions or the TurboTax desktop editions installed on a personal computer?

You can find the SEP IRA entry field by typing "SEP IRA contributions" in the search field of TurboTax Online.  The search function should give you the jump-to link as shown below:

It's TurboTax web based, not desktop version

Using the TurboTax online editions, you must be in one of the sections of the program for entering tax data before the links on the left side of the online program screen become available.  Such as Federal>Wages & Income

Then the link for Tax Tools will be available

😫not sure why, I still don't have the same result as in the screenshot you provided.  No "JUMP TO" options at all to anywhere.... 😖.   I remember that it did have the JUMP TO before this year!!!

I see what you meant Donin, because it seemed to be that way when I entered information each step.  When I kept entering information one by one step, I do remember that there were more links/options there for me to click on....  I'll try entering more information..  Thanks to all of you
