Have you entered any income?  For tax year 2022 you must have at least $2,500 of earned income from work to be eligible for the Child Tax Credit.

Yes. My earned income was $4,512 so I'm confused.

Are you able to view your tax return?

 

Child tax credit is reported on line 19 of the Federal 1040 tax return.

 

The Additional child tax credit is reported on line 28 of the Federal 1040 tax return.

 

Both computations are made on Schedule 8812 in the tax return.

 

You can review the 1040 in TurboTax Online by following these directions.

 

  • Down the left side of the screen, click on Tax Tools.
  • Click on Tools.
  • Under Other helpful links, click on View Tax Summary.
  • Down the left side of the screen, click on State Tax Summary to see the actual tax return that you prepared.
  • Down the left side of the screen, click on Preview My 1040 to see the actual tax return that you prepared.
  • Down the left side of the screen, click Back to return.

You can print or view your full tax returns prior to filing after you have paid for the software.
