Hqualdep smart check

I am getting the following error "Hqualdep is marked as estimated" Enter the correct number and then uncheck "estimated". I have followed all the steps of going to the dependent worksheet in the form mode, but there is no line item that is in red and so I don't know which one to uncheck. I have two dependents on the tax return.

Strange.  I just saw a comment added to a similar question.  One user said they went back to the Personal Info section, deleted the dependent (in your case, two dependents), then added them back.  It cleared the error for this user.  

Please comment back here and let me know if this works, if you don't mind.

Kat, Yes that worked. In my previous attempt I only removed dependent expenses. I didn't know that i have to actually totally delete the dependent and re-enter the information.
