I went to the search feature, entered the word caregiver and nothing appeared. Can someone tell me how to claim the Caregiver Credit using Turbotax?

Found the solution myself, when you enter your name address and spousal information TurboTax asks if you want to claim the CCC, say yes and after that it's automatically entered during Easy Step.
