I am running the review on my federal form. It is identifying Schedule C, Line 27a as an error and it will not let me advance. It has placed a 0 here as a credit for energy efficient building commercial buildings. I do not have any commercial building so I don't know why this is even showing up. I tried deleting the zero but it won't let me. I tried right-clicking on override but it won't let me do that either.

I have looked through the interview but can't figure out how this got here. What can I do to get rid of this mistake so I can finish my return? Thanks.

You can try entering a random number there besides $0 and then deleting it.

It won't allow me to enter a number to delete.

If you do not have any energy efficient commercial buildings deduction, try deleting Form 7205 which seems to be initiating this error.
