I have court ordered legal custody of my granddaughters and have always filed with them as dependents, relationship grandchild. No category for this . What do I do?

There's thousands of grandparents raising grandkids. Better be specific on this.

When entering them as dependents in the My Info section of the program, select Another Person and then from the dropdown on the Additional Info screen select Grandchild.
