Go back to the section in Deductions and Credits where you entered real estate taxes paid on your principal residence and check your entries. TurboTax is indicating that there was a negative number.

 

You can enter the taxes either in the Mortgage Interest section or the Taxes section, as long as they are not duplicated.
