I am having the same error. I am not even self-employed but was forced to set up a business due to having a household nanny. Hence my self-employed income is zero. None of the steps described by the answer below solved this issue for me. When I try to follow the steps described it tells me I already have a refund and am not eligible to defer anything so I can't get to the prompts to enter the information the tax expert advises. Turbo-tax will still not let me efile until this is fixed.
