Run Smart Check Again - Item Q line 1

Hello,

 

I am running Smart Check again and again since it tells me it found an error.  It asks Item Q line 1 should be entered.  Enter Zero if None.  I don't know or understand why it is prompting for this and I don't know where to get the info it needs since I don't know what this is in reference to.  Any ideas please?

The State Tax Refund Worksheet is trying to determine whether your state tax refund received in 2020 for the 2019 tax return is taxable or not.  

 

Item Q Line 1 is the amount of state and local real estate taxes shown on your 2019 Schedule A, line 5b.

Actually I found the 2019 Schedule A 5B and it is empty, there is nothing on that line.  So this means I enter nothing then?

That is correct.  Enter nothing.
