I am having this same issue and this has not resolved it. I spent EXTRA money just to get through to somebody on the phone and n all they did was google this same exact question and find this same thread. Now I have paid the next level "expert" help and still have gotten nowhere. Please assist in anyway because this glitch is happening on all devices that I use and now I am down extra money on my return because of an issue that is not my fault.

For anyone that needs help: youre going to want to go back to the state taxes section, and there should be a "Pass through entity tax" section you can edit once you hit edit state taxes. Once you go there and there are a bunch of sections you probably just zeroed out, you have to go back and take all of those 0's out of the text boxes. Once they are ALL out, then it will let you continue and finish filing. Good luck!

I solved this by going to the supporting document by using the plus, +. symbol on the message.  

At the supporting document I used the X in the screen to remove the item.

Very frustrating.

Turbo tax will not let me file my taxes due to an “error” with the Code 20 amount. It tells me there should be “0” and when I go to fix it, it is a 0 but still won’t let me file.

Where did you find the supporting document? I'm unable to locate where the + or document is to be able to press the X.

Just Go Back To The State Where The Tax Credit Is, Mine Was Virginia, After The Income Section You Should See The “Pass Through Entity Tax Credit”. If You Inputed 0, Just Delete The Input And You Should Be Able To File. I Just Filed 2 Minutes Ago Because I Couldn’t Figure Out Why For Weeks, Well, I Gave Up Honestly lmao.
