Hello all,

I am seeing this error message (Form 8938: ... must be entered) for every empty cell in 14. Other foreign assets and 13. Foreign deposit and custodial accounts.

For 14.Other foreign assets , I don't have anything to report for these items.

For 13. Foreign deposit and custodial accounts, I filled in one cell per row if I had anything to report (as suggested by TurboTax), but TurboTax requests that I have to fill in the other cell.

How can I fix this error?

The reason was that I put '0' into the form below when I was reporting foreign financial asset. For example, if I don't have Royalties, I must not put 0, but leave it as empty.
