If you entered your dependents and your income earned from working correctly into the software, the program automatically adds the child tax credit and/or additional child tax credit to your refund.  So perhaps you made some sort of mistake when you prepared your return.  

 

TurboTax does not receive any information from the IRS or your state after your return was filed, so no one at TurboTax knows about a letter you received from the IRS or the state.

 

TurboTax has a special phone number for help with IRS/state tax letters, which will be easier than going through regular Customer Support.   At the page below, click on the blue button that says "Get Help from TurboTax Support".  Then it will ask you what tax year is your letter.  Then it will ask you what the letter concerns. Then it will show you the phone number during posted business hours.

Agreed ... if something else changed on the return then it could affect the credits and the ACTC is based on income and tax liability.  Review the notice carefully ... what else was changed?
