TurboTax; F2 child resident alien; $500 Credit for Other Dependents (“Family Tax Credit”)
My child is on F2 visa, > 5 years in US, resident alien for tax purposes. Doesn't qualify for the Child Tax Credit (no SSN), but meets conditions for "qualifying child" (qualifies as $500 Credit for Other Dependents - “Family Tax Credit”). When I enter child's details in TurboTax, there is a citizenship question (with options for US citizen/legal resident; or non-resident). When I choose "non-resident", the system does not treat him as a dependent. Is there an option to for the child to quality for “Family Tax Credit”?
Thank you!
