I cannot locate the home office deduction section. The Turbo Tax instructions go to Income and Expenses does not lead to the "home office deduction". Where is it?

The easiest way to get to the home office deduction screen is to follow these steps:

1. Within your tax return search Home Office Deduction using the magnifying glass at the top of the page
2. Click Jump to home office deduction
3. Click Review on the 2021 Self-Employed Work Summary page
4. Click Start or Edit whichever shows next to Home Office
5. Click through the screens answering the questions about using the home office if they are prompted
6. Enter the start date of the business - if it was in business in 2020 or earlier enter that date
7. Click through the questions including entering the square footage of the office space and the square footage of the entire living space of the home
8. On the Simplified Home Office Deduction page click Yes, I want to use the simplified deduction and continue with the remaining questions

For additional categories of deductible self-employed expenses see What self-employed expenses can I deduct?

I did step 1 several times and "home office deduction" never appears in the menu.
