Credits and deductions

My wife and I split my pension income. My wife has only cpp and oap. I read that the medical expenses should be claimed by the person with lower income. I filed with med exp on my own return, Turbo Tax did not provide warning, yesterday the refund checks arrived however when I ran another test it appears we could  have received approximately $250 extra if claimed on my wife’s return, 2 questions, 1. Why didn’t Turbo Tax provide warning and 2 now that I have returns what can I do about it? I purchased copy this year as I have done for about last 15 or more years. Having said that this was only the second time I have had expenses greater than the 3% amount!
