My spouse and I each have a 50 cents ending to our advance child tax credit. When TurboTax rounds them up, I end up with a total that is $1 more than the IRS says.

Since they have a warning that says enter the EXACT amount, will this extra $1 cause an issue? Or should I round up on 1 and down on the other? I'm unsure how to fix this with TurboTax

Don’t worry. The IRS requires rounding.

I decided to go look at the actual IRS form - and it looks like they combine the amounts for spouses on one line, so to get the total to match I rounded up on 1 and down on the other, so our total will match the IRS total.
