Switch to the FORMS mode and delete the unwanted entry there.

Thanks for reply.

But the issue is :

Switching to Forms,

TT premier desktop, in forms mode the entries are 3 .And they are correct in the left pane tree.

(After selecting' required forms for filing' in menu to preview or save PDF)

when try to preview the tax return or when saved as PDF THERE are 4 account forms showing up instead of CORRECT 3.The fourth one is a REAPEAT of second account with SAME details.

If I file the tax return to IRS electronically, probably will receive 4 accounts forms INSTEAD of 3 and with repeated account.

Also the total amount in form 8938 is increased by the duplicate amount.

So How to correct this?

Thanks

OK.

What I have done-- I deleted the whole FATCA inputs in TT interview a and did afresh .

I have done again with same number and same values

Now every thing is correct--Preview shows correctly. Problem solved.

Just informing.

Thanks.
