Turbo Tax is warning me to "report the sale of your principal residence" I didn't sell my house, why am I getting this error?

This error is preventing me from submitting my tax return.  

 

How do I stop Turbo Tax from thinking I sold my house?

Click on Find (magnifying glass) in the top right-hand corner. Type "prin" in the box, then select "Principal Residences" from the list, and click “Go”.

 

If the box is checked, click the “Continue” button. On the next page, click “Delete” next to any thing listed there. Then click the “Back” button at the bottom of the page until you get back to the “Sale of your Principal Residence” page. Now you can uncheck the box. Click the “Continue” button to save your changes.
