I need to go back and take off the child care...cant figure it out

If you have not e-filed your tax return, to delete your child care information / Form 2441, follow: 

While signed in to your return, at the right upper corner, search for child care credit  and then click the                                   "Jump to" link in your search results.

1.  At the Did you pay for child or dependent care in 2016? screen, answer Yes

2.  Continue to the Whose care did you pay for? screen and uncheck all boxes. Click Continue.

3.  Select My Account (top of screen), click on drop down arrow

4.  Select Tools

5.  On pop-up screen, Tools Center, Under Other helpful links, choose Delete a form

6.  Select Delete next to the form 2441 and Continue with My Return

7.  Back at the Review Form List screen, scroll down to make sure Form 2441 no longer appears on the list.


If you have already e-filed, wait until your return is accepted or rejected by IRS / the state.

                -If your return is rejected, add or edit your new information (along with anything else that needs to be corrected)                              and then re-submit your return.  See   Fix a reject

                -If your return has been accepted- you cannot change the information. Instead, you have to amend a                                                return.   See instructions below.

IRS does not allow e-file for amendment,  you will need to submit the amendment forms with related supporting documents by mail. (Follow instructions through the step-by-step interview questions in the program)

If your original return generates a refund, you should wait until your original refund arrives before you file your amendment. You can cash your check, but you still should wait until your current tax return is resolved.  Note that if you see " Do Not File" watermark on your Form, this means your original return is either still pending or forms are not finalized yet.
