When trying to enter the child care provider ein its saying it needs to be in SS format(000-00-0000). Turbo tax doesnt allow me to enter it like that.

Are you trying to work on the childcare credit before you have entered the income you earned from working?  You will not be able to get the childcare credit until you have entered income from working.
