How do I enter that I am a dependent

In the My Info section at the beginning of the TurboTax interview, after you enter your name, birth date, and other information, you get a screen that asks "Do Any of These Apply to [you]?" That screen has a list of checkboxes. Check the box that says "Another taxpayer can claim [you] on their tax return."
