  I entered my health insurance under Less Common Business Situations. Now I want to modify that number, but Turbo Tax will not let me update it. When I click on the update button it takes me to a screen that says to "return to the topic where you entered business income/expenses." There is no place to update this number.

To change that number, you will need to go to the Schedule C input screens.  Health insurance premiums can be found in the Common Business Expenses section of the Schedule C.

  I don't like the idea of accessing the forms directly. The main purpose of using TurboTax is avoid the complexities of using forms. Anyway, in my case, I entered on the worksheet the names of insurers and I want to review the list again and add to it. I don't recall what I included. How about fixing Turbo Tax to work as intended.

  The problem is that when I click update, it does not allow me to modify the entry for insurance deduction. I can enter it once but afterwards the Update does not function.
