If I am self employed and have a family plan through Obamacare, can I put the premiums I paid as a healthcare deduction in the business portion of my return (Sch C)?

No. You should enter it in with your personal taxes. Please visit the link below for more information. https://ttlc.intuit.com/replies/5148119

Okay, so I took the premiums out of the business section that paid, took out the 1095-A entries and saved the file. Went back in and just entered the 1095-A information again, checked that I am self employed and bought a Marketplace plan and selected my company info where asked. TTax still says something is missing and bounces me back to the personal/healthcare section when I do the Fed review.
It would be nice if they told you where the problem is... Any suggestions at this point?

Have you recently updated TurboTax? Also, can you post the exact message you're receiving as the error. so that I can better assist you.

I had just updated TTax before I went through the process above. Thanks TaxGuyBill for your input. My question now is, if it hangs at the Health Care Review and can't get past it, is there something else that could also need attention that's part of the review process that it now can't tell me about?

If you go to the 'Forms' in the upper right hand corner, the look at the list of forms and worksheets on the left side.  If there is a red exclamation mark next to a form or worksheet, it may be a 'real' error.  If there are not any red exclamation marks, there aren't any errors.
