Foreign Earned Income Wrong

My wife made $50,800 in Foreign Earned Wages which I have entered in, but when I get to the page “Confirm ______'s Wages Already Entered” it shows a number of $101,600 (which is double)and this is incorrect, and I don’t know how to get rid of this number.  

The result is on From 1040, line 21 is substantially larger than line 7, and they should be very similar in size.  

I would appreciate your help with this.

Foreign Earned Income Wrong

Bring form 1040 up on the screen.  Put the pointer on line 7 or line 21 and right click. On the box that appears, click on "data source." Another box will appear with the source or sources for the entry. Check out the sources to isolate the discrepancy and take corrective action.
