You will answer No to the question do you have an agreement with the other parent. Then you will select that she spent the most nights in your home and No, I'm not letting xxxxx other parent claim her for 2017.  

These questions are there in case there is another parent that you could have an agreement with. Since they do not apply in your situation simply answer as stated above and you will be able to claim your daughter.
