Turbo tax says I have sold my principal residence when I have not. How can this be fixed?

When I tried e-filing it was not accepted by CRA because what they see is I have sold my primary residence. I went back over my taxes and could not find any place to correct this.

Are you using TurboTax CD/Download or TurboTax Online?

I downloaded the program, not from CD

You can go into Forms mode, then select the PRWS form on your return. Click Edit from the top grey menu, then Forms > Clear Current Form.

I think this is a program bug. I have the same problem.

I have the same problem.  The generic message I'm getting is "One or more entries in your return require correction.  The data entered is either invalid or mandatory information is missing."  When I print the CRA version of my spouses return, I'm getting the "Principle Residence Designation Worksheet".  Certainly a bug.

This step doesn't work.  The form is blank, but is still there.

You can remove the form as seen in the image below.
