Naming of new dependent

Client's baby born in 2018 has two middle names  …. or is it two first names and one middle name.

Name (made up of course) appears like this:    Jane Rose Barbara Smith


How do I enter the First Name in LC to avoid a kick out by the IRS for a mismatched name in the SS files?

The IRS only matches against the first 4 letters of the last name and the first letter of the first name. You can use whatever input gives you the tax return presentation the client prefers, within those guidelines.
