@Opus 17 I truly believe there is a glitch. Whether turbo tax wants to admit it or not.
When I spoke to a TurboTax specialist on the phone we did a walk through of my selections. When I got to the page where it had the option to answer whether or not my spouse could be claimed as a dependent, there was no answer at all, the question was blank. We tried to move on to the next page to see if it would let us and an error message popped up stating that an answer to that question is a required field. This lends further credence to it being a software issue, not user error. It seems my response was removed and replaced with a default answer of “yes”.
Morgan, were you filing as single or married filing separately?
If single, did you previously use the same Turbotax account to file a married return (separate or joint)?
If you want to provide a diagnostic code, I will pass it on. Somewhere in the help menu is the command "Send file to agent." This uploads an anonymous version of your file to tech support and gives you a token number that can post here so I can pass it on.
