What do I put on form 2441 if I didn’t pay anyone to provide care for my disabled mother, who I am claiming as a dependent?

My mother lives with me and she is disabled and has not worked. She only receive SSDI. I pay for all of our living expenses and she only pays me a little less than half of the rent, since we’ve lived together. I’m having trouble completing form 2441 because I did not pay anyone to care for her, and this is preventing me from filing my taxes. Any suggestions on how I can move forward?

You do not enter anything for that if you did not pay someone to help take care of your mom.

You may need to delete the form if you started it, because you won't pass the error check if it is half-done.

The dependent care credit would only be claimed if you paid someone else to care for your disabled dependent while you were working.
