Turbo Tax won't allow me to add alimony that I have received.  I am going to Federal; Deductions and Credits and there is nothing about alimony income.

Alimony received is income; it would not be entered under Deductions and Credits.   You need to go to Federal>Wages and Income and scroll down the page.

the alimony might not be taxable. The TCJA repealed the tax provision that alimony is taxable to the recipient.  The repeal is effective for any divorce or separation agreement executed after 2018 or for any divorce or separation agreement executed before 2019 and modified after that date if the modification expressly provides that the amendments made by the TCJA apply to such modification

 

to find the section in Turbotax

federal> wages and income> less common income > alimony received.
