Sorry about that - for some reason it didn't post the rest of my question?! I had finished my return (though I don't want to file until April since I owe) but wanted to pay for Turbotax to get that over with. It went to the Review stage, and said there were a few more things needed to clarify. It proceeded to bring up a part of the form where it asked how many dependents for the taxpayer, and how many dependents for the spouse, in regards to a letter regarding the advanced child tax credit. I wasn't sure if I was supposed to put 2 for each (we only have 2 kids) or split the kids 1 and 1. I just put in a filler, knowing I'd go back to edit it correctly before April when I actually filed. However, now it won't go back to that during the review. I've tried to search for it with no luck. Does anyone know how to get back to edit that part of the form?

That would have been for calculating the Child Tax Credit on IRS Form 8812.

Enter child tax credit in the Search box located in the upper right of the program screen. Click on Jump to child tax credit.
