if you indicated that you will pay the entire amount by check then you cannot use the 9465 entry screens ...  skip the installment agreement section in the TT program and apply directly online here since the fees are lower  :  

https://www.irs.gov/payments/online-payment-agreement-application

The IRS fee for setting up an installment payment plan is $107 if you request direct debit or $225 for payroll deduction and it is usually taken from your first payment.  If you go online to the IRS site at Online payment agreement application and complete the application, you will only pay $31.  If you would like to complete that option and bypass the installment plan set up in TurboTax, select that you will pay the tax liability by check.  You will be able to still e-file and set up the arrangements to pay on the IRS website.

The IRS charges a user fee of $225 when you enter into a standard installment agreement or a payroll deduction agreement. If you enter a standard installment agreement and choose to pay via direct debit from your bank account, the user fee is $107. If you use the OPA application to request an installment agreement, the user fee is $149. If you use the OPA application to request an installment agreement and choose to pay via direct debit, the user fee is $31 for all taxpayers regardless of income levels. Note: The user fee for restructuring or reinstating an established installment agreement is $89 regardless of method of payment. (IRS Tax Topic 202)

This keeps coming up at the end of TurboTax for me. I have entered "0", "25" any other number, and finally just tried leaving it blank. No matter what I enter, it keeps coming back ans telling me I need to check this entry and will not allow me to move forward! This is driving me crazy! I elected to pay my full owed amount via check. What do I need to do to be able to move forward and file electronically?? Do I have to change something somewhere else?

This appears to be an installment agreement question/error. Sign out of TurboTax and clear your browser history.  Sign back in and click "file" in the left hand menu. Follow the prompts and make your payment selections again.
