Where do i enter income from my wife who is a real estate professional

She is self-employed and would need to enter here income and expenses in the Self-Employed Edition. If she got a 1099-Misc, follow the first set of instuctions. If she didn't see below.

Report income with a 1099-Misc

While in your return, type “1099-misc” in the Search box and then select the “Jump to” link. This will take you directly to the section where you can enter your 1099-MISC.

After you’ve entered the information from your 1099-MISC, TurboTax will ask a series of questions to determine if your 1099-MISC income is from self-employment or is ordinary income.

Report income without a 1099. 

  • Click on Federal Taxes on the top row of TurboTax Deluxe Online.
  • Click Wages & Income
  • Under All Income, click Show all income
  • Scroll to Self-Employment, click Start
  • Click Yes to Did you have any self-employment income or expenses?
  • Enter any income from sales or services that weren't reported on Forms 1099-MISC
