Self-employment expenses

Have used TT for several years--this year, cannot get it to where I enter self-employment expenses, only income. Where do I go to input vehicle/travel expenses?

You must use either TurboTax Self-Employed or TurboTax Home and Business to enter expenses.

To add expenses,

Select Review by your Self-employment income & expenses.
Select Review at Your 2020 self-employed work summary.
Scroll down to EXPENSES below the income entered and select the box on the lower left: Add expenses for this work.

Still cannot find the Review as suggested. Nowhere does TT show self-employment sections. What am I doing wrong. Going to Business section just lets me put in income, no place for expenses.

If you can see BUSINESS on your screen you have the Desktop version "Home and Business".

Select Business at the top of the screen
You will see various business related topics Including
1. Business Profile
2. Import Business Information
3. Business Income
4. Inventory
5. Business Expenses
6. Business assets
7. Final Details

You should now be able to enter your Business Vehicle Expenses, and Other common Business Expenses including Travel.
