Turbo Tax Error

In the Review phase, I received the error "CPP/QPP contributions or pensionable earnings have been entered incorrectly. Check the amounts entered on your T4; particularly boxes 10, 14, 16, 17, 26, and 28. If the information entered matches your slips, please contact TurboTax support at https://support.turbotax.intuit.ca/contact/"

Amounts were directly downloaded from CRA My Account.  I have manually compared them and they agree.

Not sure how to proceed...

Try deleting the T4 and manually re-entering it.

Deleting and then manually entering T4 info did not resolve the problem.  However, I made an interesting discovery. 

On the "Review: Errors" screen, clicked on "Fix" and then "Edit" for the offending T4.  Adjusted my CPP contributions (Box 16) by 1 cent and clicked on "Done with T4 Slips", the error disappeared! 

My CPP contributions were $1,481.58 with the error.  I changed that to $1,481.57 and no more error.  Actually any value other than the original will fix the error.  Out of interest, I entered $9,999,999.00 and Turbo Tax was quite happy.

Incidentally, if you then change Box 16 back to the original value then the error will reappear.

I really don't think CRA will care if the box 16 value is off by a penny.

OK Intuit, that should be enough info for your coders to figure out the problem.  You're welcome.

I tried this "fix", but it did not work for me.  Any other suggestions?

Other than completely deleting and then manually entering T4 info (which is what Intuit first suggested to me) I have no other advice.
