It wont let me file because it tells me i have to finish the eduactor part but when it takes me to it, it wont let me enter anything.

Assuming you are referring to the special above-the-line deduction for educator expenses:

If you are in Review, go back to Deductions and Credits

Scroll down to Employment Expenses

Select Teacher (Educator) Expenses

Enter your unreimbursed expenses in the box that appears.

Teachers may be eligible for the Educator Expense Deduction if they meet certain criteria. You must:

• Work as a teacher, instructor, counselor, principal, or classroom aide
• Work with students in kindergarten through grade 12
• Complete at least 900 hours of work during the school year
• Be employed by a school that provides elementary or secondary education as determined by state law

See this article for more information about this deduction.

I went down to deductions and I saw where it says employment expenses but when i click on teacher (educator) expenses it just asks me a yes or no it doesnt give me a form to fill out but it still wont let me file.
