home and business self employed health insurance payments

[skrueger]

I am self employed.  Home and business will not allow me enter my health insurance payment. I have a schedule c and it shows a profit. But when I go to less common expenses ...under self employment health insurance. I hit update and it only tells me about self employment health insurance. It does not give me a place to enter an amount.

Please advise

Please go back to Business

Select "I'll choose what I work on"

Select "Update" under Business Income and Expenses

Select "Edit" for the business 

Select "Other Common Business Expenses" under Business Expenses 

Insurance Payments will be on the list

Insurance Payments will not be on the list until there is a profit on the Schedule C

If you go to "Self-Employed Health Insurance" under Less Common Business Situations the program will tell you that you need to "locate the business activity on the topics list"

this means you should go BACK, scroll up and select "Update" under Business Income and Expenses and follow the above steps, select Edit for the business then Other Common Business Expenses, then Insurance Payments
