You can't.  The only way to avoid TurboTax generating Form 8880 for the Retirement Savings Contributions Credit if you qualify is to tell TurboTax that you were a full-time student.  Doing so only causes TurboTax to omit Form 8880 and has no other effect on your filed tax return; you are not filing an inaccurate tax return.
