To enable the entry box you must first indicate in the Profile section of your return that you are eligible for the credit.

1. Under the Setting Up tab, select Profile.
2. From the screen that appears, select the Revisit option beside Other Credits and deductions.
3. Select Yes to the question - are there other deductions such as public transit, union or professional dues or alimony that you want to claim?
4. Check off the "I am an eligible teacher or early childhood educator and paid for eligible school supplies during the year" option.
5. Click Save, then Continue.

When you reopen the Teachers Supply credit in the Deductions tab (deductions> other deductions> Teacher and Early Childhood Educator School Supply Tax Credit) the option is now enabled.
