I am filing a return with 2 foreign dormant corporations.  The data is entered correctly (at least per my review of the forms), but I receive the following critical diagnostics:

Federal Form 5471, Schedule P, page 1 is included in draft form. (ref. #0)

Federal Form 5471, Schedule P, page 2 is included in draft form. (ref. #0)

Federal Form 5471, Schedule P, page 3 is included in draft form. (ref. #0)

Federal Form 5471, Schedule P, page 4 is included in draft form. (ref. #0)

Federal Form 5471, Worksheet A, page 1 is included in draft form. (ref. #0)

Federal Form 5471, Worksheet A, page 2 is included in draft form. (ref. #0)

Federal Form 5471, Worksheet A, page 3 is included in draft form. (ref. #0)

Federal Form 5471, Worksheet B is included in draft form. (ref. #0)

The links do not bring me to any form.

There is no data entered on the above forms for either Foreign Corp.

Is there any way to clear these or should I just override error checking?

I don't think these diagnostics will prevent efiling. If they do, disable error checking.

The more I know the more I don’t know.
