Hello, I accidentally selected that I have a 1099-C while looking over stuff, and now I cant unselect that option. what do I do now?

I did not receive a 1099-C, and just want to clear that selection from the options. for some reason turbo tax does not allow you to uncheck it.

According to the IRS, nearly any debt you owe that is canceled, forgiven or discharged becomes taxable income to you. You should receive a Form 1099-C, "Cancellation of Debt," from the lender that forgave the debt. 

Here’s how to remove Form 1099-C:

1. Tap Tax Tools in the left column
2. Then Tools
3. Select Delete a Form in the center
4. Find Form 1099-C and Canceled Debt Summary and delete both
5. Tap Continue With My Return to get back to the interview mode
