I am not able to add any of my business expenses. The screen just flashes when I press the pencil. Last year when I did this it automatically scanned my bank account and did this but this year I don't even see a option to connect my account

Try clearing “cookies and cache” and logging back into TurboTax. This should reset the program so you can connect to your bank account.

Here's a TurboTax Help Article with the steps.

It still does not give me any options to add expenses. I click the pencil and the screen just reloads the same thing. I even click "Add Expenses for this work" and it does the same thing

We have been able to reproduce this experience in TurboTax Online but suspect this is browser-related. Please log out of TurboTax, refresh your browser, and clear your cookies and cache. Then restart your browser and log into TurboTax again.

Another option is to use a different browser.

When you return to the Self-Employment topic, enter your business income before working on your expenses. Also, you can try adding a new line of work (which you can delete later) before working on your current business.

Hey friend- I was able to do it, by stating I did not want the max return up front and instead wanted to do it as over multiple years. I put my assets in, then switched back to the lump sum payout for this year.

Hope that helps you!
