To go to the section of the tax return to enter this information, use these steps:

 

  • Click on Search  
  • This opens a box where you can type in “self-employed health insurance deduction” (be sure to enter exactly as shown here)
  • The search results will give you an option to “Jump to self-employed health insurance deduction
  • Click on the blue “Jump to self-employed health insurance deduction” link 

 

The result will show you a summary page of any Schedule C businesses you have entered.  Edit the business information and go to the Other Common Business Expenses section.  Find Insurance Payments and click Start to enter your information.

Suggestion didn't work.   It led to Business Income.   When I click Update (I didn't see a Start button), I keep getting a message that self-employed health insurance must be entered for each business.   I have only one Schedule C.   How do I enter the self-employed health insurance deduction?

Found how to enter self-employed health insurance.   I'm not exactly sure what I did.   It certainly wasn't intuitive.
