How do I add a home office deduction?

I've tried following the instructions in the help guide but don't see the prompts. Thank you!

First of all, you need to be in the Self-employment income section. The easiest way from there to get to the home office section would be to use the "Help" magnifying glass icon on the upper right corner of your screen and type in "home office" and press "enter" on your keyboard. You should then see a "Jump to home office" link appear that will take you to the home office entry screen.

Otherwise, you need to work through the self-employment section of TurboTax until you come to the business expense entry screens. You will come to a screen that says Select the expense categories you have. There you will see an option to select the home office category. When you proceed further you will see a option to enter your home office expenses.
