Everytime I try to submit my tax return I get this message on the computer software. I saw something on reddit about changing from standardized to itemized back to standardized, but the fix does not work for me.

    Marking/Unmarking estimates are found under the Edit Menu. Estimated fields show up under Forms view in Italic Red. Once you discover that field that needs to be cleared, navigate back to the section in the Step-by-Step view, place your cursor on the field box and use the Edit Menu to toggle off the estimate.

    Same problem with me--Run Review--and under tax summary page it stated that Itemliab and Stdref are stated "as marked as estimate"   No other form or field is marked as estimated.  No red entries ANYWHERE!!

    Just ran across a similar post from last year.  Delete the tax summary form and it regenerates without the error,  SOFTWARE BUG
