To enter your insurance premiums in TurboTax, please follow these steps:

  1. Click on Federal Taxes > Deductions & Credits  [In TT Self-Employed:  Personal > Deductions & Credits > I'll choose what I work on].
  2. In the Medical section, click on the Start/Revisit box next to Medical Expenses.  [See Screenshot #1 below.]
  3. If you haven't yet entered any medical expenses, TurboTax will ask you if your total medical expenses exceed a certain number.  [That's the 10% AGI or 7.5% AGI mentioned above.]     [Screenshot #2] 
  4. If you think your total medical expenses will exceed that number, click the blue Yes box and continue through the interview, entering the requested information on your medical expenses.
  5. You will come to a screen, Enter Insurance Premiums, where you can make the entry for both health insurance and long-term care insurance premiums.
