Where do i enter my mileage for my vehicle on turbo tax?

If you are self-employed as an independent contractor you can enter mileage on your Schedule C.  You are posting your question from online Deluxe---which does not support preparing a Schedule C for business expenses.  If you have business expenses you need to upgrade to Premium.
