Does anyone know why I cannot uncheck the Disaster Tax Relief option? I did not take one, but it won't let me uncheck. It won't let me continue without unchecking it.

If you didn't have disaster relief, try these steps to clear it.

 

Go to Wages & Income

1. Scroll to the bottom of the section without making any changes.

2. Click I'll choose what I work on

3. Click Done with Income

4. Continue moving forward until you see a question about whether you took a disaster distribution in 2020 = No

Run the Federal Review again to see if the error has cleared

 

If you have tried these steps and you did not see a question about the disaster distributions in 2020, then try the steps listed below

Go to Wages & Income

1. Scroll down to "Retirement Plans and Social Security

2. Select IRA, 401(K) Pension Plan Withdrawals(1099-R) = Continue (you don't need to add any income forms)

3. Have you ever taken a disaster distribution before 2021? = Yes

4. Did either of you take a disaster distribution at any time between 2018 and 2022? = No

 You should be able to e-file after answering the two disaster distribution questions in this manner.
