Canada Caregiver Credit applied to wrong spouse

I completed the steps to apply for the Canada Caregiver Credit using the following instructions:

https://turbotax.community.intuit.ca/questions/1712087-how-do-i-claim-the-canada-caregiver-credit-cc...

When asked "Is <Wife> dependent on you because of a mental or physical impairment?" in the husband's profile, I selected "No".

When asked "Is <Husband> dependent on you because of a mental or physical impairment?" in the wife's profile, I selected "Yes".

This indicates that it is the husband who is dependant and the wife who provides care. However, Turbox has applied the credit to the husband instead of the wife.

How do I fix this?
