AR2441 Not letting me Advance Arkansas

[jsfire]

I'm doing state taxes for Arkansas.

I am on the below page.  I cannot make any combination of entries work to let me press the continue button.  If I enter any value in the 2nd box, it clears out instantly.  This is if 0 or 336, or blank is in the first. This seems to be a bug that I cant get past.

Are your taxable dependent care benefits $336? That is, was the amount of the box 10 number larger than what you actually spent on child care?

What happens if you enter the screen from the previous screen, see the $336, then hit Continue immediately? It works for me. What are you trying to indicate by changing the entry?

[jsfire]

Yes, somehow for the dependent care FSA, through my employer my spouse contributed 5336, 336 over the 5000 cap.

"What happens if you enter the screen from the previous screen, see the $336, then hit Continue immediately? "- Nothing.

Solved:

I went to the Arkansas Income Allocation Worksheet Form.  I found line 1b, then clicked override on the cell that should not have 336 and entered 0. This resolved the error on the other page.

The excess contribution is taxable on your AR return so a zero would not be correct. The override in FORMS mode voids the accuracy guarantee. Although, sometimes an override in FORMS mode- then go back to step by step to get the program to understand what you want -will work so you can cancel the override. In your case, the taxable income should be there. See AR1000F and AR1000NR Instructions
