Hello im trying to enter my income/expenses/ wages but every time i click on it, it shows me my occupation but im not able to enter my dollar amount.

You will have to enter your income and expenses in Schedule C. To enter information, see below:

  1. Open (continue) your return, if you don't already have it open.
  2. Inside TurboTax, search for Schedule C and click or tap the "Jump to" link in the search results.
  3. Answer Yes to Did you have any self-employment income or expenses? or Did you have any income and expenses for a business in 2017? and follow the onscreen instructions.

Or, if you need the Schedule C to report a 1099-MISC, search for 1099misc, then click/tap the "Jump to" link in the search results. Answer Yes to Did you get a 1099-MISC? and follow the directions.
