What do you mean by no way to revise. Can't you put your curser at the end of the amount and backspace to delete, or just select the entire number and delete? If nothing else, instead of changing that number just add a new expense for the difference between what you already entered and want to enter now. These categories are really just for for your convenience. The IRS could not care less if you split a deduction between two entries.

Thanks, that worked to just delete wrong # and paste in correct number. The web page gave No indication that you could do that. Problem solved.

Yes, you can change your medical expense deductions by entering the words medical expenses in the Find window on the upper right,

hit Enter,

then click on the Jump To.

Go back through the interview until you find the number you want to correct.

I followed your steps but like before I get to that page but I have no way to revise number. I've tried this before I posted but still blocked. I even when to Revisit under All Med Deductions and still No joy. Not sure what to do now?
