It would be entered as Contract Labor in the Business Expenses area. 

How to get to the area to enter your business expenses :   While inside the software and working on your return, type Schedule C in the Search at the top of the screen (you may see a magnifying glass there).  There will be a popup that says Jump to Schedule C.  Select that to get to the general area. 

Then:

  • select Edit next to your business (if it is there)
  • scroll to Business Expenses
  • then Select one of the following, depending on what expenses you are entering: Other Common Business 
  • Contract Labor will show up in that area as you go through the screens
