Massachusetts Form 1 Line 11b - need to edit

I am primary earner with my husband as spouse. I have retirement plan, my husband does not. My husband thought when he entered that his spouse had retirement he was referring to me, not recognizing I had already entered it for me.  Now it looks like he had $2000 retirement plan credit when he does not.  It shows up on our Massachusetts taxes, Form 1, Line 11b.  I have gone through and looked all over and it this question does not pop up again.  Where do I find it? How do I edit it?

Yes, you can correct this in Forms mode, without creating an override.

 

Here's how to do that:

 

 

  1. Open your return in TurboTax.
  2. Select the Forms icon in the upper right corner.
  3. Highlight Info worksheet under your Massachusetts return. 
  4. Scroll down to line 10, under Part VII.
  5. You can clear any of the entries in the Spouse column that shouldn't be there by highlighting the number and hitting Backspace.
  6. Once the section is corrected, return to the interview by selecting Step-by-Step in the upper right corner.
