Open TurboTax
In 2025 I am unable to Netfile due to an Override Error in Schedule 5 due to my Dependent infirm child over 18's address declaration. I was able to Netfile in 2024 even though the field was overriden then. Please advise? Is this a Turbotax 2025 bug? I purchased Turbotax specifically to Netfile through the software. Why would things have changed from one year to the other?
You are restricted to Netfile due to the override.
Go to Forms Mode, find Schedule 5, right-click the field you overrode, and select "Remove Override" (or "Undo Override").
Instead of overriding the form directly, ensure the child's address is correctly entered in the "Dependant Profile" section of the interview.
Note: If the child lives with you, usually checking "Yes" to "Did [Child's Name] live with you all year?" automatically populates the required fields without an override.
If the address is an issue because the child lives in a different location (but is still dependent), make sure you use the specific boxes for "Address of Dependent" in the interview rather than typing text into the form.
If the CRA requires an address format that the software will not accept without an override, this is considered a "restricted return." In these rare cases, you must print and mail your return.

If you need further help, we suggest you contact our Product Support team. They have access to tools we don't have here in Community, like screenshare, and can investigate this issue for you.
What is the interview? Also the child is an adult child 18+. Also I am using Line 30450.
