I am a partner in an LLP for which I received a K-1.  I pay for medical insurance (family plan) outside of the partnership, so that expense ($18,858) does not appear on my K-1 as a deduction.  I cannot get the TurboTax "override" function to work to enter the number manually on Schedule 1, Line 16.   Last year this information appeared in Schedule 1, Line 29 and could be entered manually using the "override" function.  How do I get this deduction entered into my return?  Thanks

    To enter the self-employed health insurance premiums you personally paid as a partner, continue through the TurboTax interview until you see the "Describe the Partnership" screen.  Select the last item on that page "I personally paid health insurance......".  On the next screen you'll get the "box" to enter your health insurance premiums.
