There is a bug in the software. TT has been working on a fix for over a month.
There have been 2 work-arounds suggested by other users.
The first is to go into the actual form/worksheet and check the “No” box. (there was a post stating this solution would invalidate any audit guarantee from TT)
The second is to answer the tax limitation question “No”, do not click continue, save the return, back out of the program, reopen the program and manually continue your return at the next step.
I have actually tried both solutions and both cleared all the error checks and were deemed ready to efile. After reviewing the paper form I successfully efiled using the second work around. My return has been accepted and approved by the IRS and state.
