Filing taxes using international address. Paid the dues and right at e-file, system is giving this message-

Use foreign address box- You have indicated a foreign address is being used.All US address fields must be blank.

There are address & City fields under US address populated which are causing system to throw the 'Check the Entry' message. Is there a fix?

Try this solution -

If you entered a Foreign Address and at one time had a US address in your information and are finding the US address remaining in the background during error check - try these steps to resolve this issue -

Return to the My Info section and select the edit next to your mailing address
Change the mailing address drop-down box from Foreign address back to US address
You may see part of your US address still there (i.e City Name) - remove any US entries still present
Change the drop-down box back to Foreign address from US address
Reenter your current foreign address and continue to file your return
