The IRS has a processing issue that is trigger Sch C, line 3, Gross Receipts Less Returns Allowances, reject incorrectly. Is this an update error on IRS /TurboTax side?

Thats weird, so when i take the amount that is in Line 2 remove it and add it to the total that is in line 27a I get the errors on my form for that amount and it says the errors in line 2 and line 27a are a problem.

@cewjr9842 - this is the ERROR message I received when the IRS was rejecting my returns: 

The IRS has a processing issue that is triggering Schedule C, line 3, Gross Receipts Less Returns Allowances, to reject incorrectly.

I'm not sure if our situations are the same; but the suggested corrective action worked for me and it did not change the amount of refund/tax payment due.  It provided me another way to report the same exact information.

Yes, that is the exact same error I received. I am not sure why its not allowing me to make the exact same changes without giving me errors. I changed the value in Line 2 to 0 and then changed the took the value of Line 2 and added it to line 27a for the total but it states I have errors on those two lines. I also tried leaving it line 2 empty as well and still errors out.

Interesting...

Then I'm not exactly sure what the problem is for you.  I just know that mine were "ACCEPTED" on the initial send.  Hoping that it goes thru but the IRS can always come back and ask that I correct it.  Right now its a "wait and see" period for me.  

Just keeping my fingers crossed..

Ok. I think i figured it out.  I could not make the change from the actual form itself, I had to do it via the step by step, i was able to type all the refund item for line 2 into the miscellaneous fields and now line 2 and 3 are blank and I got no errors. I just submitted and crossing my fingers now awaiting an acceptance email. But we will see, thanks for your help and assistance on this. I will update if I am not accepted.

@LadyGourmet 

Yes, that did it, it was finally accepted!

So we will see what they come up with! 

Thanks Again!
