To enter the EIN, you have to select that the provider was an organization and not a person.  To update this information:

  • Go to Federal > Deductions & Credits
  • In the Your tax breaks section, click Edit/Add next to Child and Dependent Care Credit
  • Answer Yes, and then Continue 2 times until you get to the Here are your care providers. Next, we'll get your expense info screen
  • Click Edit next to the Provider and Type. 
  • On the Who provided the care? screen, select An Organization and then continue.
  •  You will be able to enter the provider information on the next screen.
