Where do you enter employee wages?

[brinks14-]

On the turbo tax program under deductions & credits, I don't see a place to enter employee wages.

If you are self employed and have employees deduct that expense when you complete your Sch C.

You need to check the circle in the interview before you can enter wages paid to employees.

You don't enter wages for employees of your business under Deductions & Credits. You enter it under Business Income and Expenses, after answering Yes to the question about paying employees.

It doesn't give me this option?  Where may I find this wages option to check the box and input wagess?

Are you in the Online version or the Desktop program?  For Online you need to use Premium or any of the Desktop programs.  I assume you are filing schedule C for self employment?
