How to get rid of : Review error message, "Your spouse/partner's income for the year is required to properly calculate your tax return."

I click "no"  and enter the net amount on the next line and still get error msg. I read that I should click "yes" and press continue. Is this correct? Will it mess up my return?  Cheers in advance!

You are required to enter your spouse or common law partners income as it affects what you are able to claim. 

You can read more about how it affects your return on the CRA link:

Thanks Meg! When I enter the amount and hit continue, I am taken back to the original error message. Am I missing something?
