Can't Input a 2023 Date in Home Office Deduction

For some reason, I can't provide a 2023 date in response to the question, "When did you start using this home office?" 

 

I actually have TurboTax *Premium. Not sure why the product drop-down doesn't list this product.

It is possible that you had a home office that was set up in a previous year, so TurboTax thinks you couldn't have started using it in 2023. You can check for a Form 8829 (Expenses for Business Use of Your Home) in your program from a previous year and delete it if you don't need it anymore as follows:

 

1. Choose the Tax Tools option on your left menu bar

2. Choose Tools

3. Choose the Delete a form option under Other Helpful links
