I clicked the "add another box 12 item" and added a secondary "D" with the larger number. The error check told me this was wrong

Like is one for 21 and one for 20?  If you see a 21 or 20 it just means the year.  You don't need to enter that part.   Anyway you should be able to enter the Code and amount.  I don't think it matters if you have 2  lines with the same Code.

If you have one code but two different numbers, then you need to find out what is the correct amount for that code and enter it. You may have to ask your employer for clarification on that.

I would, but if my employer is the US Military, then how would I do that?

Thank you. The first number was 21 and it automatically gave me $21.00.
