Thanks for that suggestion, it does seem like it would work around the current problem. I have only used the online version, so I'll have to decide if paying Intuit for flawed software is worth it.
And I do appreciate the irony that a manual override to improve the accuracy of the software will remove its own accuracy guarantee.
Hopefully someone at Intuit reads this and discovers how the software mishandles this specific scenario when dependent care benefits make you ineligible for federal credits, but you are still eligible for state credits. I tried calling support, but of course no one will talk to me unless I pay for live support first.
