T4 - Box 17 and Box 17A Error

Hi, 

I am getting the following error when entering a T4.

 

* When you enter an amount for extra CPP/QPP contributions in T4 boxes 16A or 17A, you also need to enter an amount for CPP/QPP contributions in the corresponding boxes 16 or 17. You can't enter an amount for CPP contributions or QPP contributions on the same T4, so make sure to only claim one type.*

 

My issued T4 only has an amount for box 17A and has no amount for box 17. Because of this, I cannot enter any amount for box 17, as it should be zero. The T4 was for short employment at the end of the year for Quebec, after already reaching the CPP/QPP maximums in BC. TurboTax, however, does not let me proceed with what is indicated in my issued T4. 

 

Can you please advise of rectification methods as my taxes cannot be filed since TurboTax flags this error and does not let me proceed. 

 

Thank you.
