Hi,, If I have already given the daycare providers EIN why do I need to put a SSN? They won’t let my complete my return without giving the SSN help!!

When you first enter the information, you will be asked if you paid a person or an organization. If you paid an organization, you must provide an EIN. If you paid a person, you must provide a SSN.

 

You may want to delete your entry and enter the information again. You can either click the trash can icon to the right of the information, or you may choose to delete the form. Follow these steps:

  • From the menu on the left, choose Tax Tools
  • Click on Tools
  • Select Delete a Form
  • Scroll through the forms and click Delete next to any Form 2441 or associated worksheets

Now that you have deleted the previous entries, return to the Deductions & Credits section and enter the child care expenses as requested on the screens.
