Yes, you are correct. You can get the EIC if she meets all the other criteria as your dependent and you simply are letting her father claim her this year. When you look at the personal info section, you should see that it says non-dependent EIC or Dependent Care Credit Only. If it says this by her name in the personal info summary, you did it correctly.
Which parent did she live with for over half the year last year?
If it does not say EIC or Dependent Care Credit Only, then you will need to go back through the questions about her and select that the other parent is claiming her this year.
If you are claiming the EIC, he cannot claim it for the same child. Depending on the set up you both have and who she lived with in 2022 for more than 6 months, he may or may not qualify for the EIC. If he qualifies and should be claiming the EIC, then you should not enter her on your return at all.
