Form 1040 keeps filling in the Qualifying widower information

dsocpa

The information worksheet keeps filling in the dependent information for qualifying widower.  Filing status is married filing joint #2, not qualifying widower (#5).  If I delete that dependent the information just populates again.  I've tried deleting the dependent.  Then the 2nd dependent information populates #5.  Can't seem to get rid of this error.  Is this a bug in the program?

I must have literally been one of the first to report the bug.  I spent about 30 minutes trying to fix.  Then I searched the community for about 15 min. reviewed troubleshooting, etc.  before I broke down and posted.  After all isn't that what this forum is about?

If you do not put L under the Lived with Taxpayer in US the problem does not appear.  I certainly would not file it electronically until it is fixed but this at least lets you look at it without getting angry!
