Can I file federal return with Smart Checking no passing?

On TurboTax Desktop I had to use Form Mode to directly modify my schdeule A to report my mortgage interest.

using recommendation from this thread  

 

When I am in the review stage to file I get errors on my Home Int Wkst. The TurboTax Smart Check is asking me to fill in some blanks that I intentionally leaving it blank using form mode.

 

Can I file with the errors? Does that mean I will get in troubles?

Try this (referencing the other thread:( 

 

State the lender's name in the Home Mortgage Interview section. 

 

If your Home Interest Worksheet has box 2a checked "no" (because you didn't receive a 1098) and box 12 checked either "yes" (for seller-financed loan) or "no" (since you didn't purchase the property from the recipient of the interest payments), there should be no error in the Review that would prevent you from e-filing. I just tested this in TurboTax Home and Business.
