Do you have a TurboTax Online account?

We'll help you get started or pick up where you left off.

Turbotax is rounding up the advance Child Tax Credit that I enter. e.g. $2012.50 > $2013.00. However it warns me that if not "exact" there could be delays with IRS.

Will the rounding cause an issue with IRS processing?

No. That kind of rounding -- rounding 50 cents or more up to the next dollar, and 49 cents or less down to the previous dollar -- is expressly permitted by the IRS at the point a dollar amount is entered onto an IRS form; TurboTax does that on all returns to simplify calculations.
