Here are the steps to remove the form (online): 

  • Sign into your return, select Take me to my return
  • At the right upper corner, search for child care credit, then select  "Jump to"  link
  • On the screen, Did you pay for child or dependent care in 2018?  Answer Yes
  • Continue to the Whose care did you pay for? screen.  Uncheck the dependent(s) and select Continue.
  • To your left, select Tax Tools, click on the drop-down arrow
  • Select Tools
  • Under Other helpful links, choose Delete a form
  • Scroll down the list to locate the Form 2441, select Delete and Continue with My Return

 

If this does not work, you might have to remove the dependent completely and delete the form 2441 and related worksheets, then re-enter the dependent info.  

  • To remove a dependent, here the steps:
  • After sign in to your account, select Take me to my return

I had the same issue helping a customer today.  If you delete the child, it will remove the 2441 - then you can go back in and add the child back.  It's much easier than going back and forth trying to get the 2441 to delete from the delete forms screen.  Took 3 minutes and the return was ready to file.....no errors.
