Troubleshooting

The screen shots you show appear to be from the "Premier" version of TurboTax, I have the standard edition.
Those screens do not appear in my "Easy Step".
In my Easy Step after already having entered all "T" slips including the T5 for dividend income I come to a screen titled: "Your investments profile for 2022"
The first line after the title states: "Review and select all the checkboxes that best describe your investments for 2022"
There are five checkboxes available the third one of which is: "Dividends from Canadian Corporations".
Checking this third box and selecting "Continue" takes me to a screen recommending upgrade which I skip then on to a screen titled: "Name: Statement of Investment Income".
The first line states; "Taxable amount of eligible and other than eligible dividends received from Canadian corporations in 2022".
The next line has a box to fill in with: "Actual amount of eligible dividends that you received in 2022".

This is the same information that was previously entered from box 24 of the T5 slip. If I enter the amount in this box the the income summary further along in the Easy Step process shows double the actual dividend income and the tax calculation is completely erroneous as a result.
This needs to be fixed. It has been an ongoing issue for several years and I suspect there are taxpayers over paying their tax bills as a result.
Thank you.
