I set up a Trump Account for my child through TurboTax. TurboTax does not allow me to select that I want her to be enrolled in the Pilot Program so that she will receive the initial $1000 to start the account. I can bring up the form but I am unable to check the Pilot Program box, Part III, Box 7. Does anyone know what I need to do to modify my selection to include Part III, Box 7?

To qualify for the $1,000 government deposit into a Trump Account, your child must be a United States citizen and have been born between January 1, 2025, and December 31, 2028. The child must also have a valid Social Security Number to be eligible for this one-time seed contribution.
The box will appear for children who are eligible, so double check the birthdate and Social Security Number entered for your child in the "My Info" section to the left of your screen.
She was born November 2025. I have the correct Social Security number. Both have been entered correctly. I am not sure how to proceed. Suggestions?
I found my error...on a screen that prompted me for number of months child lived with me in 2025, I had marked two months. After re-reading the question, I changed it to the entire year. Once that was changed, the check mark for the pilot program for the Trump Account was added. Appreciate your help.
