Profile inconsistent with spousal form

Further to this sent yesterday:  Husband profile indicates no self employment income yet review process asks for province of self employment.  There are no numbers in T4A boxes 20 and 48.  

However, page 1 of return for the wife indicates that spouse is self employed.  If I override this check mark, will I still be able to netfile?

If you entered a T3 slip in your return with an amount in Box 24, you must specify the province of Self-Employment even though you do not have a business. You can click "Fix" and "Applies to Me" on this error message, then enter your own province of residence as the province of self employment.

The CRA considers amounts in Box 24 of the T3 as business income and those amounts are transferred over to Line 135 of the T1 General Tax Return.

Thanks for the speedy reply and explanation.  There was one entry in a T3 box 24.
