Retirement tax questions

Thank you for clarifying the line number mismatch between the error message and revised worksheet.

 

This is puzzling because I have a traditional IRA contribution on Line 1 of the IRA Contributions worksheet. 

Line 12 (Deductible traditional IRA contributions from worksheet  is zero.

Line 13 (Nondeductible traditional IRA contributions from worksheet) matches the number on Line 1

Line 14 (Amount on line 13 you elect to make nondeductible) matches line 1. It is this non-zero amount that is flagged as an error.
