HELP!!!!!! I have a form Turbo tax won't let me get rid of it

Turbo Tax keeps asking me to fill out a K-1 Estates Trust information.  I do not have any Estate and Trust information! it won't let me delete the form!  I can't go any further in Turbo Tax without putting in information for a K-1 Estate and Trust information that I DO NOT HAVE!!!!!

The proper way to delete an unwanted K-1 is from the K-1 Summary screen, which also removes the associated worksheets.

  1. Open or continue your return in TurboTax, if you haven't already.
  2. Using the search feature in the upper right, search for K-1 and select the Jump to link in the search results.
  3. Answer Yes to Did you receive any Schedules K-1 or Q? Select this even if the correct answer is no.
  4. Select Update next to the type of K-1 you initially entered (partnership/LLC, S corp, or estate/trust).
  5. On the K-1 Summary screen, select Delete next to the K-1 you want to remove. Answer Yes on the following screen.
  6. Select Done.
  7. If necessary, repeat steps 4–7 for other K-1s you need to remove.

Try deleting it this way.  Go to the K-1 interview section here

Federal

Wages and Income

Then scroll way down to Business Items

Schedules K-1, Q - Click the Start or Update button

 

If the first screen says "Do you want to review Schedule K-1?". You have to answer yes and then click Update by  the Schedule K-1 type (LLC, S corp, trust). The next screen is the Summary screen listing all of the K-1 entered for that type of entity.  You can review, edit or delete it there.

 

One user found he had to add a fake name first.....

I figured out that I had to actually start fixing this problem by entering a fake K-1 name to the TurboTax request and then going back to the "Update the Schedule K-1" and deleting the fake K-1 name.
