My 1099-INT Box 10 (market discount) is zero, but Turbotax says it can't be equal or less than zero. What gives?

There isn't a need to enter -0- in the TurboTax program if the Form 1099-INT box 10 has zero. Just leave the field blank.

in the 2023 software, you cannot leave this field blank. it defaults to 0 even if you delete the 0 first.

I am having the same issue. It literally will not let me file my State return electronically. This needs to be fixed in the software such that the field can be made blank as an option. I'm guessing they have a forced zero in that field. I cannot seem to find a way to override it.
