PPP LOAN QUESTION

This is a long shot, but if you were following the steps in a TurboTax help article for How do I enter a parsonage or housing allowance reported on a W-2? and followed a 'jump-to' link for other reportable income, then you can land on the PPP screen you described.  The easiest way out is to simply click to another section of your return without answering any questions or filling in any data.
 

The 'jump to' link is not going to the same place as in the past and you are going through a different/incorrect section of the program.  It has been reported that the help article should be corrected.

 

If you indeed need to adjust for a clergy housing allowance, try using the following steps:  

 

  1. In the Income section of your return, scroll to Less Common Income.
  2. Click Start or Update beside Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A, 1099-C.
  3. Scroll to the bottom of the Let's Work on Any Miscellaneous Income screen and select Start next to Other reportable income.
  4. Answer Yes, and on the Any Other Taxable Income screen, type Clergy Housing Allowance in the description and enter it as a negative number (precede it with a minus sign, for example -10,000).

This will report the housing allowance as a negative adjustment on Form 1040 Schedule 1 line 8z.
