Did you figure this out? We have the same problem. I've even tried removing all that info, but it won't fix the error.

same here anyone has a fix?

Primary residence error?

daelian, I'm not sure which it's related to, but I finally got mine to go through. I filled out the contact info, but before someone had a chance to call me back yet, I went in one more time. The only thing I changed was giving my spouse 50% of the proceeds, rather than either of us having 100%. I'm not sure which fixed it, but I managed to submit finally!

OMG this worked.... thank you thank you. After I spent 2 hours online with Turbo Tax helpdesk and also filed an escalated request. No one had an answer...I just split 50-50, even if it does not matter as not taxable since principal residence. Thanks again!

I'm glad it worked! I was so frustrated!
