dependent summary won't allow me to enter amount paid

If you have a FSA for dependent care, you must file Form 2441 with your tax return. You may be able to also receive the Child and Dependent Care Credit. Follow the steps below to enter the information for the Child and Dependent Care Credit and your FSA:

Open TurboTax
Select Edit under Deductions and Credits
Select You and Your Family
Select Start/Review next to Child and Other Dependent Tax Credits
Scroll through the screens so TurboTax can perform the calculations.

For more information, refer to TurboTax articles Flexible Spending Accounts: A Once-A-Year Tax Break, The Ins and Outs of the Child and Dependent Care Credit, and Filing Tax Form 2441: Child and Dependent Care Expenses.
