Deductions on wrong spouse? How to correct

Hello

 

When entering child care expenses, it should default to the spouse who makes the least, however mine is on the higher income spouse and i cannot correct/change it. Any ideas?

 

Thanks!

Does anyone have any idea? Turbotax's "help" won't connect me to a person.

Did you enter the child care expenses under the spouse that was to claim it?

Yes, i entered my tax info first (the lower one), then when i added my spouse's tax info it automatically changed it to hers and i didn't notice and posted it, only to notice when i was printing a hard copy.

 

I've tried to refile and adjust it, but cannot change it, even when it asks if the higher income spouse is eligible and i say no.
