Error code 255

You will see the following error message in H&R Block’s 2024 tax software if, on the RC383: Tax-exempt earned income for a pooled registered pension plan page, you designated an HBP and/or LLP repayment amount that is more than the amount of PRPP contributions you're reporting:

The PRPP contributions you want to designate as your repayment under the HBP and/or LLP can't be more than the total amount of contributions you made to the PRPP. Let's go back and correct your repayment amount(s). [error code: 255]

 

How do I fix this?

Return to the RC383 page and make sure you’ve entered the right repayment amounts. Remember, the amount of PRPP contributions you’re designating as HBP and/or LLP repayments can’t be more than your total PRPP contributions.

Note: The RC383 page can be found under Pension contributions & expense on the Credits & deductions tab.
