A New York individual tax return that includes Form IT-216, Claim for Child and Dependent Care Credit may receive this reject:
Reject Code: R0928
Invalid Dependent YOB on IT-216
In the Child Care Credit Menu in the New York return, ensure the qualifying person's birthdate has been entered correctly. This credit is available for a dependent under the age of 13, or for a dependent age 13 for the part of the year they were under age 13, or for any other dependent or the spouse who is disabled and lived with the taxpayer for more than half the year.
If the qualifying person's age is over 13 and they are not disabled, they are not a qualifying person and should be removed from the list of qualifying persons in the form menu. On the other hand, if they are disabled, indicate that fact in their entry in the Dependents & Qualifying Children menu in the federal return.
