    Sometimes you have to go forward to go back. Go into the child care as far as you can, then delete, say no and select the back button, keep deleting and saying no until all the information is cleared out as you hit back, back, back until you reach the beginning of the child care.

    Double check to see if you still have a form 2441 for child care and if it needs to be deleted.

    If you are using:

    Online: see How do I view and delete forms in TTO?

     Desktop: If you are working in the cd/download TurboTax program:

    1. On the top right, there is a FORMS button. 
    2. Click on FORMS.
    3. Locate the form you want to delete.
    4. Click on the form name.
    5. Below the form, bottom left, select DELETE FORM button.

    I don't want to delete ALL of the Childcare info, just the entry for a provider that was carried over from the previous year that was not used for 2024.

     

    I can't get back to a screen that shows the list of providers at all.

    I just see the screen with both my children listed an amount and the option to Edit or Delete.

    Clicking edit for the cild in question shows the 'Total Dependent Care Expenses Paid' and a 'Continue' button which takes me back to the previous screen.

     

    How can I get to the list pf providers?

    To delete the provider, go back to your return:

     

    1. Select Deductions & Credits
    2. Select Revisit next to Dependent Care Credit
    3. Continue until you get to the list of your providers
    4. You can select the trash can, next to the provider you want to delete
