Form 8949, Box C incorrectly selected

Hello,

 

For my return; I inputted the figures from my 1099-B under Income --> Capital Gains, and selected the option that I did receive a 1099-B and basis was reported to IRS.  This shows up correctly on Schedule D in Forms View, in the 'Exception' box, under Line B.

 

1. "Is this sale reported to you on Form 1099-B or equivalent.  [Yes is checked]

2. "If so, is Box 6b marked (is basis reported to IRS)? [Yes is checked]

 

However, my problem is that in Form 8949, on both Part I and Part II, Boxes C and F are incorrectly selected by Turbotax, which read "..transactions not reported to you on Form 1099-B."  I want Box A and Box D to be selected, which read "..transactions reported on Form 1099-B showing basis was reported to IRS."  If I manually override to correct this, the software won't let me e-file.

 

 

How can I either get the software to accept the over-ride for e-filing or select the correct boxes on Form 8949?

 

Thanks.
