I am self-employed and hired independent contractors to assist in operating my business. Where do I enter this expense in the deductions section?

Go to your TurboTax return on the left-hand side go to the "Income" section and scroll down to self-employment and continue. You will keep going until you pass the vehicle expenses and you will the see "

(Your name), did you pay any wages or salaries to anyone? That is where you will enter what you paid the contractors.
