When you review the list of dependents there should be a trash can icon next to the name, you can delete them. Or, run the interview and answer you had custody less than half the year, have a custody order, and won't be receiving a dependent release form. That will leave the person's information in the file but marked as "not a dependent this year."

*Answers are correct to the best of my ability at the time of posting but do not constitute legal or tax advice.*
