Where in TurboTax will I enter the Health Insurance Premiums that I paid for my Mother's health coverage?

I know she qualifies as my tax dependent, just need to know where to put this information in Turbotax?
(I use TT Self Employed)

Thanks so much.

Medical, dental, and vision insurance are reported with other medical expenses on Schedule A and entered in the Deductions & Credits section:

1.       Open your tax return.
(To do this, sign in to TurboTax and click the orange Take me to my return button.)

2.       Search for Schedule A and then click the "Jump to" link in the search results.

3.       Answer Yes on the Did you have any medical expenses in 2016? screen.

4.       You will then be prompted to enter your medical expenses, starting with prescriptions.

If you're using Federal Free Edition or Basic and your medical expenses are large enough that you would benefit from itemizing deductions, you'll be prompted to upgrade to Deluxe, as the Federal Free and Basic versions do not handle Schedule A.

Cool, but I do not see a way to enter premiums paid for two different people - there is only one column - should I add my own insurance premium and mom's premium and input there? Thanks.

More than a pleasure. That's how I do it. Hope it was helpful.

Sorry, just a tiny doubt - I do not see a way to enter premiums paid for two different people - there is only one column - should I add my own insurance premium and mom's premium and input there?

Thanks

Sorry, I wasn't clear. Add both your premiums and Mom's and input it on the insurance line. 🙂

2022 TurboTax does not let me input my MA Schedule HC Form. 

 

I generated the pdf form and the Schedule HC Form is empty. Where can I input my 1095C information?
