Where do I enter the Tax ID Number of a daycare in the Care Provider section? The prompt is asking for a Tax ID Number but only presents fields for SSN and EIN numbers.

Our child care provider is a business and I have the Tax ID number, and the prompt is asking to enter the Tax ID number, but there is no field/option to enter the TID. There are only options to enter EIN and SSN of the care provider.

Tax ID and EIN are the same thing for that form.   If your childcare provider gave you a "Tax ID" that is what you enter.
