T5008 date of disposition error

I'm unable to resolve a T5008 date of disposition error even though a date has been entered.

It's a joint tax return. First return was submitted through NETFILE without errors.

When I try to submit the second return, this error blocks NETFILE.

I've tried changing the date on the T5008 from 03/02/2025 to 01/01/2025 and then to 31/12/2025. No change.

Text of the error is:

To accurately calculate your capital gains, you need to enter a date of disposition in 2025 on your T5008 slip(s).

FIXED - TurboTax does not direct you to the T5008 in error. I mistakenly assumed that it did. Because T5008s are in both returns, I assumed it was directing me to the single T5008 in the first return. It wasn't. I'm an idiot.
