Is there an issue with the Dependent Care Credit entry?

I answer preceding questions regarding residence, being a student or disabled and then it jumps back to the deductions/credits screen. Seems like a glitch, but I could be missing something.

Have you entered your income yet?

You will not see the childcare credit until you have entered some W-2 income or self-employment income that shows a net profit. If you are filing a joint return you need to make entries for both spouses. And....you cannot get the child care credit if you are filing married filing separately.
