How to indicate that one is self-employed?

HI all,

Doing the 2023 for my spouse (who is self-employed) and I (retired and not working), and on my T1 form I'm asked to 'tick this box if they were self-employed in 2023'.  Simply stated, TurboTax will not allow me to do so, as I get the 'you have tried to change the value of a calculated field' error message.

This leads me to a suggestion and a question:

-suggest that the software creators provide a more specific, and helpful, error message indicating where this calculated field comes from.  Like 'please see the INFOWS page (or whatever page or field is appropriate) to update this value"

-where can I update this value such that this self-employed box on my T1 is in fact correctly showing that my spouse is indeed self-employed?

 

Thanks for considering and I look forward to reading feedback on the above.

Cheers
