Solved
It says both spouses must've worked full time OR be a full time student or disabled... but there is no box to check for works full time so when I click "none of the above" it says we don't qualify for dependent care.
Yes, there's no check box for works full time because the presence of a W-2 satisfies that requirement.
If both of you work and have W-2 forms, no further proof is needed. The check boxes are just there to show why you still qualify when one of you doesn't have any earnings.
If you both have a W-2 in the return and the program isn't giving you the credit, check to see if the ownership of the W-2 forms is right in the program.
Here's how to do that:
- Open you return.
- Select Federal, then Wages & Income.
- To the right of Job (W-2), select Edit/ Add.
- You should see both of your names and your W-2 forms listed below each.
- If one of the forms is listed on the other spouse, select Edit.
- Select Show employee info. You can correct that here.
