As Volvogirl suggests, TurboTax won't show you this screen unless you are filing married joint but at least one of you doesn't have any earned income (like from your W-2). In this case, Turbotax is asking to see if the spouse without earned income fits one of the exceptions. If you check "none" then you are indicating that one or both of you do not have earned income but that you also don't meet one of the exceptions.
So you had one or both of you not indicate any earned income, yet you answered that this person did not meet either of the exceptions. Make sense?
Perhaps you need to check that both spouses have earned income (allocating a W-2 to the wrong spouse is a frequent cause of this situation) or one spouse has a sole proprietorship (earned income if profitable) but you have not entered to yet so TurboTax is unaware that that spouse has earned income.
