Deductions & credits

@FredWayland It depends. Are you entering deductions as charitable contributions? If so, you need to get rid of the charitable donations you reported.  

 

If you are working in Desktop, which I suspect you are first remove all charitable donations by going to federal>deductions and credits>charitable donations>Donations to Charity.

 

After this is done, perform the following steps while you are working in the deductions and credit section.

  1. Scroll to the bottom of the page
  2. Select Done with Deductions

  6. GET A TAX BREAK FOR DONATING CASH TO CHARITY
  7. Enter your amount
