Just encountered a bug. No matter what I type in 5 months in "how many months did your child live with you" it defaults to 6 months. I've quit and restarted, nothing works. It's a bug plain and simple. I tried fixing in the form itself, rather than in the Easy Step process and it still defaults to "6". Any suggestions for a work-around or how to fix this problem would be greatly appreciated!
