After entering "Prior Year Roth IRA Contributions" it still says I owe taxes. I did total contrib. prior to 2019 minus total withdrawal amount. I shouldn't owe. ??

I withdrew less than total amount contributed, and withdrew after 5 years of having account. What am I missing?

Please ensure that you entered in the field "Prior Year Roth IRA Contributions" your contributions before 2019 minus withdrawals before 2019.
