Turbotax bug while adjusting tax withholding using form 8958, it adds withholding instead subtract it in subtraction field

[mqc5]

There seems to have a bug in turbotax online when I tried to use form 8958 to adjust the income and tax withholding in community state for married filling separately. When adjusting tax withholding, the subtraction field can only take a negative value, but it is adding that amount instead of subtracting it. It seems to be subtracting the negative value, which resulted in an addition. For example, person A withheld 10k tax, and person B withheld 2k. When filling person A's tax, by using form 8958 to tax tax withheld from 10k to 6k, I need to enter 4k in tax withholding subtraction field, but it only takes a negative value, so I enter -4k, the resulted withholding is 10k - (-4k), which ended up to be 14k instead of 6k. The support team needs to either change the sign or allow positive value to be entered.

I am having the same issue and have posted about it, but still have not had a fix. I was even on the phone twice with product experts and one stated they would escalate it to the tech team. Hopefully someone will fix this soon.
