IHSS W2 Shows ZERO in Box 1 so I can't E-file

Last year I exempted the IHSS W2 wages using the instructions for +/- in Miscellaneous Income for the IHSS IRS Notice 2014-7. This year, since Box 1 has my wages as ZERO I added it in with our other W2's to properly report the Social Security, Medicare and SDI deductions. TurboTax gives me a message that says I can't e-file because one of my W2's has $1 or less in Box 1 and that I can only file by mail. Is there a way around this or will I HAVE to file by mail because of this?

Hi,

 

Have you receive any answer to your question? I am in a similar situation. and really don't want to do paper file and prefer e-file. Please let me know if you have found a solution for this.

 

thanks.
