I have two sons in university. When I take the statement each of my son's return generated over to my return, the application mixes up the amount I can transfer for each

Each of my son's returns were prepared in Turbo tax and I used the transfer statement at the end of each return.   I have double checked that I have entered each son's details on my return correctly.  When I click the "tuition transfer" button, the application tells the that the max I can claim for son 1 is actually the amount for son 2.  Similarly, for son 2, the max I can transfer is for son 1.  I don't think it matters as the correct dependant deduction shows up on my return, but I caused me much confusion preparing my taxes last night.

This seems to be an application bug.
