Question

1099 worksheet page does not let me Add Expenses For This Work

I had expenses such as E & O insurance, License fees, office rental, internet, and phone bills for my 1099nec self employed work but turbotax does not allow me to enter expenses on the Add expenses for this work box link

You can enter your self-employment expenses.

Here's how to do this in TurboTax Online, using "supplies" as an example, but follow the steps for each expense you have:

Navigate to Federal > Wages & Income > Self-employment income and expenses
Select or create your business
Choose "Add expenses for this work"
Select the category. For example, "supplies" and choose continue at the bottom of the page
In the list of expenses, "supplies" will now appear.
Choose the pencil icon to add the amount
