I used turbotax free download version and CRA has told me that I'm a member of a communal organization so my RRSP deduction is disallowed. But I am not. How can I fix it?

I used turbotax free download version for 2018 tax return and CRA said "We disallowed your RRSP deduction. Since you are a member of a communal organization, you cannot contribute to an RRSP.". But I'm not a member of communal organization. I want to adjust or fix this problem so please let me know where I need to change(which line).

Do you have a T3 slip on your return? If so, make that you have answered NO to the question “Is Box 26 Communal Income”.

Hi, I am having this same issue. I refiled and ensured this spot on my T3 was checked as "no" (even though we had indicated 'no' when first filing) and I get the same message on my NOA. After hours on the phone, the CRA said this is an issue with TurboTax that is sending a message to the CRA indicating this misinformation and that we cannot refile to remove this information. We now have to wait the NOA date for the CRA to manual go and fix this error. Not sure why TurboTax is indicating this, as this greatly affects the tax return value when your RRSP contributions are VOID and adds a big headache to deal with. I hope TurbaTax can look into this and fix this issue.

Hello, I am experiencing the same issue, I didn't even input any T3, why my NOA says I am a member of communal organization? How may I fix it?

Plus I was using turbotax online for years

On the T3: if you have an amount in box 26 -they must enter it in the proper box as shown below.

There is also a question asking if you were part of a communal organization: If you accidentally said "YES' that will be a reason that it shows up on your NOA.

Hello, 

I don't have T3 slip, however CRA says there is line 53650 indicated an amount which should be zero for non-member of communal organization. We went through all the tax return and could not locate anywhere of this line. 

By the way, I guess there must be something mistakenly input. Can you tell where this question appeared?  "There is also a question asking if you were part of a communal organization: " ? 

Thank you!
