One adult child, disabled, *did* pay > 50% of her living expenses. When I say so though, the program keeps changing the answer back to no. Think this is a bug?

Why are you listing them as a dependent if they are not a dependent ?  Delete them.

Why?

 

A. Because Turbotax, if you use it every year, just leaves them on there, even after they turn 18 (did for my kids, anyway). So I didn't bother deleting them.

 

and

 

B. She's disabled now - so I wanted to find out *if* she would qualify as one. Which I think she would have, if she truly hadn't paid more than 50% of her living expenses last year. What I'm saying is, Turbotax isn't letting me answer Yes to the question (did she pay more than 50% of her living expenses), it keeps magically changing my answer back to "no", even though I answered "yes".

 

But yes, I suppose just deleting her altogether would work.

Once the child turns 19 then their support comes into play ... so did she turn 19 yet ?

Yes, she is well over 19 now.
