If your itemized deductions entered have not exceeded your standard deduction yet then the sales tax deduction has not affected your tax liability.
The form 8812 deals with the child tax credit (CTC). The CTC question is being asked to every taxpayer this year as part of the new child tax credit protocols. You will need to revisit the "Child tax credit" topic and answer no you did not receive any advanced CTC payments which should turn off the form 8812.
- "Deductions & Credits" Tab
- Scroll down to "You and Your Family"
- "Show More"
- "Revisit" "Advanced payments, child tax credit..."
If the error persists after answering "No" then you can also delete the form 8812.
- "Tax Tools" in the left hand menu
- "Tools"
- "Delete a form" in the main screen
- Find the form 8812
- "Delete"
- "Confirm Deletion"
