Type of Account Error in ITR2

My Son is Non Resident. I get 'Type of Account' in Bank Account in as error message. There are no failed bank accounts and his NRO account is validated in the e portal website, 

How do I rectify the above error , so that I can proceed further.

Please help.

Thank you

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses a common 'Type of Account' error encountered when filing ITR2, particularly for non-residents with NRO accounts. Users are advised to check account type selections (Savings/Current) and, if the issue persists, to contact the helpline via the 'Grievance' section with screenshots. Solutions suggested include editing the account type to 'Savings' and revalidating, or selecting '0' for non-applicable exempt allowances in the Salary schedule (B3) to clear related errors.

Check if the account/s in ITR form are peoperly selected like 'Savings/Current' etc,

If not resolved by it; contact helpline by filing 'Greivence.'

Thank you for your response.

The account type shows NRO.  I edited the bank account to 'savings' and when it gets validated , the account type shows again as NRO.

I am doing online filing.

Tried doing  fresh filing many times. Every time, the same error message comes.

 

 

 

It is glitch in the software. If you can validate & verify the ITR, file it as it is. If not able to file then file complaint under 'Grievance' with screenshot.

On filing ITR2 online even there is no exempt allownce filled but on verifying it is showing two errors with similar words " Please select an nature of exempt allowances option from the rop down at B3 of schedule salary.  In the salary schedule only pension amount is filled as basic salary . unable to verify and submit due to this reasons.

Go to B3 Tab of Salary schedule; select all the brackets which are not applicable to you & delete them; these will remove the errors.

i am getting the same error while filing itr2. error is "type of account ". 

did you error get resolved?

already tried this but not work same error repeating and it is two times

Second option is ...

Go to B3 (or click on the error) to reach the tab.... select any option from the dropdown menu..... select value '0' then save...

There are two such defects so you will have to repeat it again in second column...

Finally save the schedule.... It gets validated...

Thanks done with clicking on shown error take me to releative filled nature as other and in descripttion mentioned not applicable and amount filled 000 then saved and error removed.

Glad to learn that...

Good luck for filing the return...
