In DC, I said I don't have any childcare payments, and it continues putting me through to the Keep Child Care Affordable Tax Credit, and won't let me proceed. Help?

I think this is a glitch in the system. Help please!

  3. Type "Child Care Credit": Enter "Child Care Credit" in the search bar.
  4. Click on the jump link: Select the jump link that appears to go directly to the Child and Dependent Care Credit section.
  5. Answer "Yes" to the question: When you come to the question about the Child and Dependent Care Credit, answer "Yes."
  6. Delete the entry: On the next screen, click the trash can icon to delete the incorrect entry.
