I keep getting an error even though I am typing the information as I see it on my tax form. 1098-T to be exact. Error reads "you must fix on this page before continuing".

I keep getting an error even though I am typing the information as I see it on my tax form. 1098-T to be exact. Error reads "you must fix on this page before continuing".

Getting an error message stating that you must fix errors on Form 1098-T before continuing is usually an indication that some of the information on the page was copied and pasted into the field, or there was a blank space accidentally added into a field as the information was entered.

This commonly occurs for the school’s Federal ID number, but it can happen in other fields as well.

To fix it, go back through the entries and type them by hand instead of using copy/paste.  Also, be sure that there are no extra spaces or blanks before or after any of the entries on the page.
