Deductions & credits

What I still struggle with is the split of daycare costs. We both spend roughly 5k above our Child Care Spending account of 2500. 

 

I am claiming my son as HOH and dependent and she is claiming the child with the daycare expense.

When I select 12 months for both I get the 700.00 credit but when I follow the turbo tax suggestion of 12 and 0 since were were divorced in last year in aug, i lose the credit. 

 

What am I doing wrong?
