Form 8815 and Schedule B interest

[jguy24]

TT Premium keeps saying that the Series I Savings Bond interest on line 6 of Form 8815 is larger than the amount entered on Schedule B, even though they are exactly the same. The only thing I can think of is that TT is only recognizing regular interest income in Box 1 (which is $0 for I bonds), and not the US Savings Bond interest in Box 3. It won't let me file electronically unless I "fix" this "error". Anyone know how to resolve this issue?
