Please follow the instructions below to enter costs incurred for Physical Therapy They are deductible as Medical Expenses.  To enter in TurboTax:

  1. With your return open, search for Schedule A.
    • Click the Jump to Schedule A link in the search results.
  2. You'll be taken to the Medical Expenses screen. Answer Yes.
  3. You will then be prompted to enter your medical expenses, starting with prescriptions.
Please keep in mind Turbo Tax will recommend (what will give you the highest credit)if it's better for you to itemize or take the standard deduction based on what percentage of your total income your expenses are
