Not necessarily. That worksheet is just for your records; it doesn't go to the IRS. Anything under 6 months = zero months for tax purposes, so since she lived with you 3 months, it would default to zero. But once you indicate you provided more than 50% of her support, it should calculate as more than 6 months even though it shows zero months.
Is she listed as a dependent on your tax return (Box 4 of the Dependents section on Form 1040) and are you receiving the Other Dependent Tax Credit for her on Line 19 of Form 1040? @Snowy_Desert
