I've never had this much trouble with TurboTax before.  Frustrated.

No.   Hold on for a while. Your problem is being generated probably because there are issues on the Federal Contributions area of the return which translates to the State.

There is a problem with the Contributions section of the Itemized deductions and also the above the line $300.00 deduction.  Because of the many changes due to the CARES Act, IRS is still developing the forms and publications on this issue.  Last update was January 13th where everything is still in draft.  Once IRS finalizes the forms, we will be able to update TurboTax to accurately reflect your Contributions deduction.
