This does not appear to work with Turbo Tax loaded from CD.
Did exactly what you did enter 600 on line 12b.
However when you perform the Federal Tax check for error....software changes it back to $300.00 and you get a error on return !
Hopefully TurbTax can do a update
Did you see this? It is for the TurboTax desktop CD/Download editions.
To remove the error I went into Forms mode and deleted the Charitable Organization Worksheet. Then on the Form 1040 Worksheet for Line 12b removed the $300 amount so Line 12b is now blank (empty).
Going back to Step-by-Step I completed the Deductions & Credits section without entering anything for a charitable donation and click on Done with Deductions. Continuing through the screens until landing on the screen labeled Charitable Cash Contributions under Cares Act, I entered $600. Continued through Final Review without error.
