spouses net income incorrect??

I am trying to complete my partners taxes but when it comes to entering my spouses additional information I get an error. When I enter net income (line 23600) it says "your spouse's net income (line 23600) should be calculated by subtracting social benefit repayments (line 23500) from their net income before adjustments (line 23400)." I have been doing our own taxes for years and never seen this before. On their detailed tax summary, line 23500 says 0.00 and line 23400 isn't there. I have no clue what it means or what to do!

I’m running into the same problem, did you by any chance get this figured out? If so could you please let me know what I need to do. Thanks in advance

I'm running into the same problem.

After some Googling, I found this document online.

 

According to that link:

 

23300 = 22215 + 20700 + 22400 + 22900 + 23100 + 23200

AND

23400 = 15000 - 23300

 

My return shows all those numbers except for 23300 so with those two functions, we should be able to compute 23300 and verify it is correct.

 

I hope this helps!

I am also receiving this error, the problem is my spouse does not have any other income except for Line 23600 and it is telling me I must subtract Lines 23500 before I adjust line 23400, this makes no sense since there is no info for either of these lines!!

Was this ever sorted out? I am having the same issue tonight. I Have an amount to enter for 23600 so not sure what the issue is

Yes it was sorted out for me on the turbo tax Canada site. I was asked to put the same figure from line 23600 into line 23400 and it worked. 

Hope this helps.

line 23400 is the net income before adjustment and if there is no amount on line 23500, 23400 will be the same as 23600.

 

We suggest you to verify all your spouse T-Slips, if all information is accurate.

 

If the issue persist, we suggest you to contact our product support team

 

Thank you for choosing TurboTax.

Did any one try this and have success getting past this error?

If splitting pension income with spouse with amount on line 21000 the  net income on line 23600 is less then net income on and then error happens? Line 23400 is Net income before adjustment so higher ... then the error happens?

This has been a persistent error over several years with TurboTax Canada. I am receiving the error right now.
