Why won’t the screen let me continue when I get a pop up saying “should be alphanumeric”?

[Need-8-figures]

I'm trying to enter NJ property tax "Lot No." "8.2", when I get the popup saying "should be alphanumeric." The problem is that number "8.2" has no alpha in it. The page won't let me continue?

[KrisD]

I'm sorry, did that not clear up the error?

[Need-8-figures]

Field won't accommodate all those characters.  I just left the field blank and then continued!  The program obviously has a glitch in it.  It's a problem for Intuit to solve.

[KrisD]

Maybe it doesn't like the "."  .

[Need-8-figures]

I didn't put the quotes in the field.  No offense, but I think this needs an Intuit tech.

[Need-8-figures]

Your'e guessing.  This issue can only be solved by Intuit.  Sorry.

NJ does not like the decimal or dot. That is what @TurboTaxKrisD was trying to tell you: to omit that. See bottom of page 29 here:

Actually, you're on the right track here.  This time I read the TTax instructions and discovered that TTax puts the decimal in for you between the two blank "lot" fields.  I ignored that instruction in my initial go-thru!  The screen intends for you to put the whole number in field 1 and the decimal in field 2, and no "decimal points" in any field.  You're tips were good as far as they went; I just needed a little more.  Thanks.

Try entering   Lot 8.2   using the letters in the word "lot".

[SweetieJean]

NJ does not like the word Lot, nor the decimal point.

I got the decimal point off my tax notice.  (I didn't make it up.)

I know, but see bottom of page 29 here:
