To remove this information in Windows:

  1. Make sure you're in Step-By-Step mode
  2. Select BUSINESS in the top banner
  3. Select Business Income and Expenses
  4. Select I'll choose what I work on
  5. On the Let's gather your business info screen, select Update under Business Income and Expenses
  6. Select Edit next to the relevant business
  7. Select Visit All to the right of Business Expenses
  8. Continue until you get to the Let's write off some business expenses screen
  9. Select Start or Update to the right of Energy Efficient Buildings
  10. Delete any unnecessary information

If this doesn't work, delete Form 7205 in Windows:

  1. Switch to Forms mode 
  2. In the left pane, select Form 7205
  3. Once the form generates in the right pane, select Delete Form at the bottom of the window
  4. Answer Yes on the popup

I am having the same issue and the form is not listed to delete under the 'Forms' mode.  I cannot file while the software thinks I need to file this attachment.  I am not sure what to do from here.

Go to that spot in the Business Expenses interview, Energy Efficient Commercial Buildings, and click Update.   Either:

 

  • Right-click on the field with the 0 and choose Supporting Details or
  • Click on Edit at the top and choose Supporting Details.

 

Clear out anything carried over from last year; delete all the fields, or use the Red X to remove each line item.   Sometimes a $0 gets stuck in the supporting details' worksheet when using the Windows version of TurboTax.   Usually removing the supporting details allows successful e-filing.   @TnB Machining
