Turbotax mixing up RESP payments with self employment?

Hi!

I know it's late, but I'm trying to file my taxes for the first time and I'm having an error when I try to submit it ( Your province of self-employment is different from your province of residence. TTO does not support Multijurisdictional returns. Review your entries.)

 

I'm not self-employed, and I only get this error when I try to include box 42 of a T4A slip in the income section! I think I need to include it, but I have no idea how to fix this, especially since my home residence and where I go to school are both in the same province??

Please ensure to review the information section of your tax return to confirm the province you have entered and verify the details on your T-slips.

TurboTax will not indicate that you are self-employed if you enter an amount in box 42 of T4A. However, if there is an amount in box 48, the CRA will recognize it as self-employment income.

 

Thank you for choosing TurboTax.
