I paid 4,038 in child care last year where do I claim this? I have the tax statements from both locations that provided child care.

    You can enter the expenses from both facilities and TurboTax will compute the available Child Tax Credit. You (and spouse if applicable) need to have been working, looking for work, or in school during the time the child care expenses were incurred

     

    Here's how to do this in TurboTax Online:

     

    • Navigate to Federal > Deductions & Credits
    • Add/Edit Dependent Care Credit
    • Answer the interview questions and add the expenses for each child care provider
