Help with deducting my self-employment tax?

Hi, I'm trying to deduct half of my self-employment tax so I can lower my AGI. For some reason I cannot for the life of me find where I'm supposed to do that. I've looked in every section multiple times, looked through all the FAQs and questions, even checked youtube, and cannot find where I'm supposed to enter this income adjustment through Turbo Tax. Help please?

TurboTax does that automatically.   You can look on Schedule 1, Line 15 to see the subtraction we calculated.    If you need to make other manual adjustments, you can do so under Business Taxes.
