Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Hi, I am trying to fill out form 8379 but I’m stuck on part 17 (credits). I revised the instructions and for tax year 2018 it says to include tax credit reported on line 12a  or schedule 3 or 5.  So I am looking at line 12a it shows 0 and schedule 3 shows 718 for educational credits.
I also have on 1040 form  line 17 b sch 8812 :1400 17c form 8863: 816 what amount should I include on line 17 form 8379. The non refundable and the refundable credits were based on me and my son. Should I put the total 718+1400+816 on line 17 form 8379?
