My wife and I both received Letter 6419 from the IRS, with instructions to report the Advance Child Tax Credit that we received in 2021. Where do we enter this info?

We believe that we are NOT eligible for the credit, so would need to repay the amount received, if that makes any difference.

Enter your Advance Child Tax Credit information from IRS Letter 6419 here:

  1. Open your return.
  2. Click on Federal tab under Tax Home.
  3. Click on the Edit/Add button next to Advance payments, Child and Other Dependent Tax Credits (under Your tax  breaks).
  4. Answer the interview questions.  

If you are not eligible for the payments (e.g., your income is too high), the program will let you know, and also what you may

need to pay back.

Was it accepted? I'm in the same boat as you and was going to file today but wanted to wait for a update.
