Schedule 1 line 17

Julie, my CPA did the numbers and I did the numbers using turbo tax.  We are off on schedule 1 line 17.  Turbo tax shows a number while my CPA doesn't which makes a difference. 

 

If I don't check the box where it says I'm self-employed and bought a marketplace plan we are $4.00 difference. The problem is I am self-employed and should check this box and by doing we have a variance.

 

Can you help?  Thanks

Schedule 1 line 17

I have more than 2% S Corp. I don’t have schedule c. Where exactly do I enter my health insurance sonic ends up on Schedule 1, line 17? It really shouldn’t be this difficult. 

Thanks!

You must be self-employed (Schedule C) in order to claim Self-Employed Health Insurance. Otherwise, report medical premiums under Deductions & Credits >> Medical >> Medical Expenses.


If you're using TurboTax Home & Business, go to Business >> Business Income and Expenses >> Less Common Business Situations >> Self-employed Health Insurance.

 

In TurboTax Self-Employed, go to Federal >> Income & Expenses >> Other Business Situations >> Self-Employed Health Insurance Paid.

There isn't a Less Common Business Situations listed on my TT H&B.  I went through the expense options and it wasn't there either.  tt H&B.jpg

Thanks DianeW777.  I found it.  However, a month ago when I printed my forms I had a form called Self-Employed Heath and Long-Term Care Insuance Deduction Worksheet.  This time, it is missing.  I want to see this document to find out how it handled my health insurance.  Last time I printed it there was a note at the bottom of the page that said: 

 

"a self employed health insurance of $863 form premiums paid through an exchange is included as an adjustment to income but does not appear on these worksheets." 

This note explained the reason for the difference in what I paid in premiums and what showed up on line 17 on my schedule 1. 

 

Is there a way to get this form?

Nevermind I found it in the forms under Health LTC wks
