Yes, you can still claim the dependent care expenses if the childcare provided is a dependent on another individual's return.  As xmasbaby0 stated, a dependent can have a job without paying for more than half of their support.  

 

To claim dependent care in TurboTax, follow these steps:

 

  1. Click Deductions and Credits
  2. Scroll down to you and your family
  3. Click Revisit/Start next to dependent care credit
  4. Follow the interview questions to enter the dependent care expense
