I am not sure why. But we can correct it. If you do not have any dependents to claim this year, you can simply remove them from the program. Here are the steps:
In TurboTax online,
- Sign back into your account, select Pick up where you left off
- From the left pane, select My Info
- On the screen Your Personal Summary, scroll down to Dependents section- find the name and select the trash icon. See the image below.
