In 2016, why did TurboTax change my EI premiums (line 312) from what I entered?

Reviewing my return for 2016, I noticed that TurboTax changed what I entered for EI premiums. I entered $840 but the generated T1 had $750. Is there some reason for this, or was this a bug in the site?

If you've over-contributed to EI during the year, only the portion that matches your income will appear on line 312. Your overpayment will appear as a refundable amount on line 450.

Do you have an amount for line 450 of your T1 General?

Ah yes, that makes up the difference. Thank you. And sorry it took me so long to reply.
