If you can claim your parent as a dependent you enter the parent as a dependent in My Info. You will get the $500 credit for other dependents for claiming them. You will need your parent's SSN and date of birth.

IRS interview to help determine who can be claimed:

Q. What form do you get to fill out if you claim your parent on taxes?

A. None. You parent's name, SS#, and relationship are only entered in the "Dependents" box on the top part of form 1040. In TurboTax, enter as described by @xmasbaby0 in the other reply.
