TT tells me box can't be blank, but then tells me it should be 0.

I'm married filing separately, just like I did last year.

Completecheck is sending me back to my Form IA 1040 Schedule 1 line 18 (B). It's telling me that the box under [Spouse ' filing status 3 only] can't be blank and to put 0 if it doesn't apply. When I enter '0', Completecheck sends me back because the box must be blank.

I'm not sure if this is some sort of glitch. I'm pulling my hair out. It won't let me efile my state taxes because of this, and I've already paid for that service.

Are you sure its line 18B? could you maybe copy the actual error here verbatim? looking at the form IA1040 Sch 1 line 18B it says reserved for future use and is not enterable.

Both screenshots you sent say to enter '0' if none.
