I am being asked to fix an entry in my schedule E form, line 4, for Royalty Income. But I don't have any. Turbo Tax won't accept that it is 0 and keeps asking to fix.

I'm encountering the same issue. Have tried everything listed. This is so frustrating!!! no help or support and endless circle for this stupid Rental Royalty from hell. Is this a ploy to get us to pay extra for support?

Please clarify what error you are trying to resolve. What have you entered and where?

I do not have any rentals or royalties.  Smart check keeps trying to force me to put a property type on Schedule E.  I have tried to delete the form and it won't let me.  HELP

[TracyD71]

see my message below.  I do not have royalties or rentals and Smart Check keeps wanting information in the property description field.  I don't have any property that I rent

Have you entered any Forms 1099? If so, you may need to delete your entry under the 1099 topic.

Also consider other sources of income that you've entered other than W-2 wages.

If SmartCheck presents you with a subform to complete, scroll down to see if you recognize the income that's been added to the form.

Several posts on this thread have instructions for removing income and/or forms that may be causing this SmartCheck message.
