Answered 'did your dependent make more than $5K' question wrong - how to change?

I was estimating taxes and guessed that my dependent did not make $5K last year but was wrong. Now I don't even see that question to change it when I go back through the dependent information section. I suspect because later I was asked if they are a full time student and I said yes, so that answer no longer matters.

 

Off topic, I hate the way they hide all the questions. I miss the way all your information was indexed on the left side so you could open specific thing without having to go through the same questions over and over again.

It looks like you might be using the desktop software this year instead of the Online software?   If so, you can get to an indexed list of topics like in the Online version.   When you click on Federal Taxes at the top, you will see the menus.  

 

To get back to the dependent questions by clicking on Personal Info up top (My Info if using Online).  Click Continue and click Edit next to Dependents.  

 

You can choose I'll choose what I work on from the main income screen to get the topic lists.   See image below
