Error in Dependency/EIC Smart Worksheet; TT won't allow me to correct

I've entered most of my tax data.  The Dependency/EIC Smart Worksheet has an X in box "Yes" on Line D, asking if my dependent was married on December 31, 2023.  I have gone back to the Info in TT and verified that I selected "No" for that question, but regardless how many times I check it and go back to the worksheet, the worksheet still says "Yes" to the married question, and the Dependency credit is disallowed.

 

Is this a TT error?  If not, how do i fix this?

    This is not a condition that I have heard of before.

     

    If repeated attempts to correct have not been successful, you may need to delete the dependent for whom the wrong information is being reported and re-enter.  

     

    Pay close attention to the re-entry to make sure that no errors are entered.

    That worked!  I deleted all of her info and started from scratch with her and now the form has the correct box checked.  Odd.  But Thanks!
