I shouldn't have to fill out form 8889t. why is it asking me to?

[BMcCalpin]

Form 8889 reports on events with your Health Savings Account (HSA). If you have on your W-2 an entry in box 12 with a code of W, you have an HSA. You must file Form 8889 if any of the following applies.

• You (or someone on your behalf, including your employer) made contributions in the tax year to your HSA.
• You received HSA distributions during the tax year.
• You must include certain amounts in income because you failed to be an eligible individual during the testing period.
• You acquired an interest in an HSA because of the death of the account beneficiary.

Because the IRS requires the 8889 to be attached to the 1040, TurboTax requires Deluxe or higher versions.

Turbo tax keeps taking back to form 8889 and wants me to check the box for "You acquired an interest in an HSA because of the death of the account beneficiary"

I have not acquired any such account - but it will not allow me past it

If i select No Entry, it just take me back to it during the final check
