Issue
When trying to carry forward a return, an exception error occurs:

The full error message may read: "Exception: Invalid form no.; GroupName=T776, GroupID=847, index=0, _groups. Count=0" but can include different values.
Resolution
There are two possible resolutions:
Missing T776 form in return
This error may be caused due to associated T776 forms (T776 CCA and T776 Asset) present in the return without a T776 form.
Spouse #1:

Spouse #2:

If this is a coupled return, review both returns.
If one of the returns has a T776CCASummary#1 and/or T776AssetList#1 without a T776#1, as in the above example, the error will occur.
Note: the # following the T776 forms could range from 1 to 999+. The T776CCASummary and T776AssetList have to have a corresponding T776.
Those orphan forms must be deleted.
Deleting the orphan forms
Note: do not delete the forms from the spouse as it will delete them from both.

2. Select the "Clear Form" option from the "Form" drop-down menu in the top toolbar.

Clear existing overrides
