    What shows a zero and where is that shown? Also, which version of TurboTax are you using? 

     

    Please provide more details.

    IF it is showing  "$0" in the entry box that you cannot change, and not a simple "$", then we have a fix for that...

     

    BUT.....if you have a Mortgage where the property taxes are paid by the Mortgage company, make sure you only enter the Prop Taxes as a part of your 1098 form Mortgage entries, and not a second time in the "Property Taxes" section

    I have the same problem.

    I'm using the desktop version and this entry is for my main and only home.

    The box has "$0" in it and is uneditable.

    No mortgage involved.

    What's the fix?
