Filling out schedule 8812

@marbee

Schedule 8812 Child Tax Credit is active in the TurboTax program.

What is the credit before payments? 

Please look at your 1040 line 28)

(How many dependents are you claiming on this 2021 Tax Year return?) 

How much did you already receive in Advance Payments?

Everyone is being asked this question since TurboTax does not know if the user was one who received these advances from the IRS in 2021.

Enter a 0 (zero) when asked to enter a number on the Schedule 8812. This will correct the issue and remove the Schedule 8812 from your tax return so that you can file the return.
