Help- Property Tax Deduction Can't Enter

Every year I go into mourn Tax desktop and choose what items to work on.  I've never had a problem entering my property taxes in 'deduction & credits' but this year when I click on update property taxes I get the following message.  I can't figure out why I'm getting it and how to enter this year's numbers.  "We need a bit more info to see if you qualify Checking for Property (Real Estate) Tax Deduction"

This issue has been reported. In the meantime, you can...

 

1. Delete property taxes from form 1098 entries and then the property tax page will show up properly. 2. Then go into Forms mode (this issue has been reported only in the CD/download version of TurboTax) and go to Schedule A, line 5b to enter the property taxes.

 

NOTE: if there is already a number in 5b and it's not your property taxes, then add your property taxes to it.
