If  you don't want to wait for the forms to be updated, the IRS bulletin indicates you can enter the exclusion amount as a negative on line #8.  Just ensure you're compliant with the new regulations just issued,

Stay tuned.  Since you can't override Sch 1, Line 8 in ProConnect Tax, you'd need to wait for the program to be updated:

@dndngh @Hawk26 As I said, you can't override Sch 1, Line 8 in ProConnect Tax.  Not sure how you can enter a negative number as @Hawk26 suggested.
