Storm damages in disaster area.. no power for 5 days.. Loss of all food in freezer and refrigerator

had to replace all food total replacement over $650.00

how to enter this loss please advise.

If you lost food in your freezer/refrigerator due to power outages from a disaster, and lived in a federally declared disaster, then you may be able to deduct the expenses under the Casualty and Theft Deduction.

Here is how to enter the expenses:

Open or continue your return in TurboTax Online
Navigate to Federal > Deductions & Credits > Disasters, theft, and other property loss or damage
On the Casualties or Theft Event screen, select "This event qualifies as a Federally declared major qualified disaster loss"

Here is an article with more information.
