You need to look at the bottom line tax for with the box checked and without. It basically is a diagnostic warning that does not impact your ability to e-file (unlike the next warning in my image.) Basically a software trying to save our patooties, by making us aware of options and possibilities.
Answers are easy. Questions are hard!
