My return is calling for form 7205 even though I’m not taking a credit and it won’t allow me to file without it?

I didn't have to 'right click the area' or 'select Override' to delete the '0' but I'm sure this depends on your computer and version of software. I'm using a MAC computer and TurboTax Deluxe (Fed + State) for desktop.

Life is a team sport. I have learned some computers you can modify on the form but on my PC laptop I needed to use the Worksheet. Winning!

Excellent.  Right clicking and then selecting override worked for filing 2024, using Premier.  Thank you.

If it won't delete from there, go back to business expenses in the desktop product and delete the zero on the Energy Efficient Buildings screen in the Common Business Expenses section of TurboTax.    Leave the field blank.

My return is calling for form 7205 even though I’m not taking a credit and it won’t allow me to file without it?

Thank you! I used Deluxe for 2024 reporting, and I had this error for the 1st time. Last year I used Home and Business.

When I tried to remove the zero from the Sch C, it still came back.

This time, I went to the forms for the Sch C worksheet, and removed it there for Line 27b, then quickly saved the whole return.

Finally, my e-file worked!!

I am totally lost ...

 what a stupid direction Intuit has gone into ... why not make it simple...

 I am just tempted to print the return and file a printed copy instead fooling around with  it. This time I used Premier instead of home and business as I don''t have any w2 forms or activity .../ does anyone have a solution .. that a lay-man can understand and go step-by-step to remove this idiotic requirement and then eFile?

Oh, I have a feeling that it is another way for them to make money!
