My return is saying I've entered foreign income but I don't have foreign income

Could I have accidentally entered something wrong while filing my w2 and if so how can I get where I need to be on my return to fix it

You might have accidentally tell the program that you work outside the U.S.  

To fix it, please follow:

2.  Across the top, choose Federal Taxes

3.  On Your income screen, on the first line, select Edit next to W-2 /

4.  Next screen, Here's your W-2 info, select Edit under your employer's name/

5.  select Continue and go through the next few screens until you see 

6. "Do any of these uncommon situations apply to this W-2? " uncheck the first option Work outside the US.
