Possible error on form 2210

Because there is not a second quarter in 2020, form 2210 should carry the overpayment from quarter 1 to quarter 3. I.e., line 18 column B should be 0 instead of blank. Then the overpayment from column (a) line 26 will correctly carryover to column (c) line 20.
While I can override line 18 column B in order to get the correct calculation, then the return is not eligible for e-filing.

See the post by Chuck a few minutes ago. I think we're talking the same issue. You addressed by overriding Line 18 Col B, while I addressed by overriding Line 26 Col B or Line 20 Col C. Any of these make the form calculate correctly, but then TT signals an error and takes away e-file. TT needs to fix this problem.

@chuckannarbor That's right. I adjusted line 18 column b because I believe that's the source of the error, while the other lines are derivative, but the other lines are all in the chain so correcting it anywhere has the same impact, and also the same flaw--loss of the carryover.
