Does turbotax recognize stillbirth for states? I did not add our stillborn daughter in Federal. MO gives a $1200 credit for stillbirth, how do I file to receive it?

I cannot find any reference to a deduction for stillborn children in Missouri after 2017, neither on the MO-1040 or in the instructions. This is surely why there is no longer a screen in the Missouri interview referring to this.

 

If you find a current instruction about a deduction for stillborn children in Missouri, please post it here.

Here is a helpful link to the states that provide tax credit/deduction for stillbirths
