I have a vacation home that I rent out as a short term rental. I enter the personal use days, and rental days, and TurboTax calculates the expenses that can be deducted as rental property expenses based on the ratio of personal use days to rental use days. That's fine for things like utilities. But some expenses, like Cleaning and Maintenance, and transient occupancy tax, which are 100% rental expenses, should not be split. So, I go into the Schedule E worksheet form and override these expense values reported on Schedule E. But then I get an error, it says that these values should not be overridden and changed for electronic filing. Using an override can prevent the cross-checking thats important to an accurate tax return. Any way around this? Can I ignore the error and file anyway? The only way I can think of is to declare zero personal use days, and then calculate the values manually. But I don't really want to declare zero personal use days when I actually have quite a lot.
