Get your taxes done using TurboTax

There is no bug in the system.

 

I am guessing that your daughter is making more than $5,050 and is older than 18, so this child cannot qualify to be a dependent as a child.

 

But in this case, the system may be trying to see if he/she can be a "qualifying relative" (also a dependent). A qualifying relative must make less than $5,050.

 

If this daughter made more than $5,050, then you must answer "yes".

 

Please read this section in Pub 17 on who can be a dependent.
