To better assist you, can you let us know what state you're trying to file a return for?

Form 5118 is a Detroit City Tax return. It is included with a Michigan State return if needed. 

 

What is the issue?

What do you need to edit?

Which TurboTax are you using, Online or Desktop?

Same problem with Detroit (Michigan) form 5118 on Desktop version, in a loop saying that I have job-related expenses (which I don't).  Please advise.

So frustrated, having the same problem with Detroit (Michigan) form 5118 on Desktop version, in a loop saying that I have job-related expenses (which I don't). Is there a way to override this issue. I contacted support yesterday and they were not much help. Please advise.
