TAXPAYER IS A QUALIFYING WIDOW (SPOUSE DIED IN 2016), WITH A 9 YEAR OLD DEPENDENT CHILD. PROSERIES IS AKING FOR NAME AND SSN ON LINE 5 WHY?

Its a glitch     Just enter the first and last name, no SSN or youll get an error since the Dep is listed below.

You should not have to if you are claiming the child as a dependent already. Is everything entered properly in the dependent section?
