I am trying to enter a repaid Covid-19 benefit but there's an error message "the total amount to deduct on 2020\2021 returns can't be than the total deduction available."

Hi there!

 

You may want to double check that the sum of each year's deduction is not greater than the total to be repaid.

 

You may find this help article useful, specifically the section 'Split the deduction between two returns'.

 

Hope this helps!
