Where do I include solo-401k contributions in TurboTax Online? Neither Federal->Self Employment->Expenses or ->Uncommon Situations seems to have it listed.

Steps:

1.  Income & Expenses (Do not go into the "Self Employment" section)

2.  At the bottom, "See list of all income"

3.  Pick "Self-Employment Retirement Plans"


No clue why this isn't lumped in with where the SE employment is...

In TT Self Employed version - Self Employment Retirement Plans can be found within "Other Business..."

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

I don't see the "Jump To".  I'm in the web version of TT Self Employed if that changes your answer.  Search seems to just search through this forum.

When using the online editions and the 2017 tax return is started or continued click the Search link in the top right ot the screen to open the Search box.

What I mean is that when I open the search box, there is no Jump To inside.

Type in self-employed retirement in the search box and enter.  The program will search for those key words and when found will display the Jump to link just below the search box.

This seems super flaky for me (some issuances of the query it shows, some don't), but eventually worked.  Thanks!

Is there a way to get in there without the search?

I am using the freedom edition and when I click the search box to type in the phrase, it just takes me to a contact page before I'm even able to type anything in. Any way to navigate without searching?
