I am unable to report the T5007 on Turbotax even though my spouse passed away last year, as the program says my spouse has to report it (due to spouse with higher income)

On this page, it says you only need the spouse with higher income to report it if the marital status is married, but my status is widowed: https://turbotax.intuit.ca/tips/reporting-social-assistance-payments-how-they-affect-your-income-509...

Sorry for your loss. If you were doing a spousal return last year, information may have been transferred to your return.

I am using TurboTax Online.  Even though I entered the information onto the T5007, the program automatically fixes the "error" for me at the end, and I am unable to override it.
