TurboTax Desktop Deluxe 2024 version How do I enter box 5 and 6 for form 1099-C? Box 5 "the debtor was personally liable for repayment"

I got Form 1099-C for a student loan that was discharged. Box 5 is checked Box 6 "Identifiable event code" - I have "G". The TurboTax desktop version only allows boxes 1-3 to be entered.

You can go to Forms and enter the information on boxes 5 and 6 of the Form 1099-C.

Click on Forms in the upper right of the desktop program screen when using the Windows editions of TurboTax.
