Since box 14 is primarily used for informational purposes rather than having the information transferred to other parts of your tax return, try changing the description of the second entry so that it is not a duplicate entry.  

 

For example, if one description says 'non-taxable insurance' then make the second one say 'non-taxable insurance-1' or something like that.  You still know what it is, but it is not an exact duplicate.

You can probably combine the two entries and just make a single entry in TurboTax for the total amount. What are the duplicate entries for? If it has anything to do with your state, what state did you work in?
