It's easy "IF YOU KNOW HOW" with the desktop version. I do not know if this also applies to the online version. But in the search box at the top right enter the word "LETME" (without the quotation marks" and click the search button or icon. Give it time. Then click the "Jump to Letme" link when it appears.

Work through the section and one of the screens will allow you to change to "ONLY" those credits you qualify for based on the information you have already entered into your tax return *at* *this* *specific* *point* *in* *time*.

So if you change it to a credit you qualify for now, and later based on information you enter into the program, you don't qualify for it, then the program will remove your selection and will change it back to the one you do qualify for, assuming you qualify for one of the credits at all.
