How do I opt to take the standard mileage deduction for my one car? I use the intuit self-employed quickbooks app to track mileage.

1 car, mileage tracked via gps. Self employed. Somehow the turbotax skipped that part and is asking me irrelevant questions.

If you are self-employed (Schedule C), enter/edit your vehicle's mileage as follows:

·         Type vehicle expenses, self-employed business in the search/find box and click search.

·         Click on Jump to vehicle expenses, self-employed business.

·         Edit your business.

·         At the 'Your xxxx Business' screen, scroll down to Business Expenses.

·         Click start/update next to Business Vehicle Expense.

·         Continue with the onscreen interview until you get to the 'How Do You Want to Enter Your Mileage for your vehicle'.  See the screenshot below.
