If you have Foreign Capital Gains in Box 21 of your T3, you must enter the amount twice in order to remove that warning. Enter as "Foreign Capital Gains" and again as "Total Capital Gains".

in 2022 Turbo tax Standard version,   I entered the same amount of foreign capital gain  on box 21, I STILL GET ERROR. I called turbo tax technical support, they could not help to resolve this error

@dwchoi1668 Try deleting the T3 form and re-entering it, or try entering it in Forms mode.

The reply says enter the amount twice.  OK....where do I enter it the second time?
