Turbotax didn't qualify us for Child Care Credit because it says my wife also needs to have earned income, but she did have an LLC registered under her with an income.

The income from the LLC was only $5000 and offset by the expense, but in essence she spent time working and shouldn't this qualify us for the child care credit? Btw in 2017 I had full time job with W2.

Sorry, her business needs to have a profit in order to qualify as Earned Income for the Child Care Credit.
