After you file
On your copy of your form 1040 in the dependents section is the box in column 4 checked for the Child Tax Credit? If not, you may not have indicated in the "My Info" section for your daughter that she lived with you all year. If you only put in 3 months due to the birth in Oct you will need to amend your return to indicate she qualifies. A child who was born in the tax year is considered to have lived you all year if he/she lived with you the entire time since birth.
If you need to amend here is a link that may be helpful. You will sign in to your TurboTax account and select the "Amend" option and follow the prompts.
You should wait for your refund to be deposited for your original return indicating it has been processed before filing the amendment.
