There is a discrepancy between the Schedule SE Part 2 section on the entry form vs print preview that appears before submitting final completed taxes. The entry form looks OK and there is nothing needed for me to update; however, the final print preview form is incorrect and I am not comfortable sending it as is to the IRS.

Schedule SE has an amount of $6,920 already entered on Part 2 line 14. This number doesn't affect the calculation of your credit. See the attached picture for your reference and also the link to a blank Schedule SE.
