I am NON-MILITARY. Why is it listing my income as COMBAT ZONE?

I am NON-MILITARY. Why is TurboTax automatically default listing my CIVILIAN income as COMBAT ZONE income?!? I have NO ties to the military and did not click ANY prompts that would indicate otherwise. When I delete my income from this obvious error and return to check, Turbo keeps displaying my income as COMBAT ZONE! I've tried to remove and review for the past 3 hours and am getting nowhere. Please help.

Please double-check your W-2 entry, if it shows code Q for "Nontaxable combat pay" in box 12 by accident:

 

  1. Login to your TurboTax Account 
  2. Click on "Search" on the top right and type “W-2”
  3. Click on “Jump to W-2”

 

If this doesn't help then please see What is the TurboTax phone number? to get more detailed help.
