Why won't turbo let me enter an amount for a wash sale loss that the review keeps asking for. it won't let me leave it blank either?

The white box is looking for an amount, it is .20, but it won't enter or clear to blank. I can't get beyond this on my review.

this seems to be a recurring issue with Turbotax. Since I can't see the actual 1099-B I don't really know if there really was a .20 wash sale.  some things you can try but no assurances they'll work.  1) delete the import. close the return. open the return re-import.  2) round the sales price and cost to whole dollars and delete wash sale amount.  3) contact support.   

if you find something that works please post back so others can be informed.
