It keeps asking me about undefined dependents but all my dependents info is already saved in the system and it will not let me get out of it. how do i proceed?

Is there something additional i am Missing or need to add since all my dependents are already noted?

It sounds like you may have skipped one of the Dependent quesitons, so go back to Personal info and check carefully.

@leroijr407 Can you generate a diagnostic file and token and post it here?

Some customers have reported success by deleting their dependents and then re-entering them.

Also this FAQ indicates the problem is scheduled to be fixed in a future release and you can sign up for notification.

I found out what caused it. I did not delete the w2 from last year. You must delete it, than it didnt ask for dependants info for "undefined". Thank you.
