I am filing a client who is HOH. Checked the HOH status and entered dependent information.  Program shows 2 errors and wants dependents name and ssn in the nondependent section. What am I missing?

So the child is a dependent and qualifies the TP as HOH?  What code do you have marked in the last column of the dependent area?  Is it Coded L ?

Yes, dependent qualifies him for HOH.  It is coded L.

Ive seen in the past people mention this, switch the filing status to Single, then switch back to HOH, does that clear it?

Just in case, you could work through the Dependent Wizard to confirm the daughter qualifies. Interactive wizards portal for determining dependency:
