I am using the download version to file one return for my spouse and me and one for my dependent child. Where do I indicate on her return that she is a dependent?

I can't find a place on the Personal Info page for her return where I would click to say "I am a dependent".

Which version are you using?  You are showing the Business program on your post but that is not for personal returns.  So I think you meant the Home & Business version?

If you are using the Home & Business program go to Personal Info and click Edit by her name.  Then scroll down to #3.

Sorry that was the Online version instructions.  Here is for the Desktop program,
Go to Personal Info
Click Edit by your name
Continue past the first screen showing your name and info
Then on the next screen check or uncheck the 3rd box for Someone else can claim (your name) on their tax return.

I'll Post a screen shot above

Thanks for the quick response. I am using the Home & Business Version. I have one file for us and one file for my daughter. When I edit the file for us, I can indicate that she is a dependent. When I edit the file for her, and go into Personal Info, the Your Info page does not allow me to say "I am a dependent".

You don't see that screen I posted?  It's on the next page after your Info.
