My spouse had earned income in 2016 (foreign). But the application is still telling me that we don't qualify for the childcare deduction.

I work for an American employer in Germany, but my wife works for a German one.  We both earned income in 2016, but she doesn't have a W2.  I registered her income in the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion section, but for some reason I still don't qualify for the childcare deduction, since TurboTax still thinks that we had only one earned income.
