In the “Review”, I get a "Check this entry" message which says "Form 1099-Q (The Bright Start College Savings Trust): Line D link field should not be linked to a Qualified Education Expenses Worksheet since the designated beneficiary is not someone other than taxpayer, spouse or a dependent". How do I unlink this in Turbotax? I’ve tried clicking on it and erasing the “Untitled” that’s filled in the Line D box.

Same problem here stuck! The form view has Line C with my dependent's name and then Line D with "Untitled" as the worksheet link. If I delete Untitled, it just comes back again after I continue.

What worked for me (finally!) was to completely delete the form and re-enter the data.

Yes, deleting and re-entering worked for me. I had two 1099-Q forms with the issue, so I had to do it twice. TurboTax - fix your bugs! This cost me significant time getting around your buggy form.

Tried to fix this numerous times and the final solution that WORKED was to go back to the federal section with Form 1099-Q info. and completely delete the form and re-enter the data manually. Once I did that both the federal and final checks went smoothly. Good luck.
