@DaveF1006 so why did the IRS send a letter stating there is an error on the form having to do with Child Tax Credit/Credit for Other Defendants and refund a significantly smaller amount? I am just trying to figure out if the 1040 really is correct and it is a problem with the IRS or if there is an error on the1040. I talked to the IRS for over an hour yesterday and the representative only said they made an adjustment. It looks like they are saying the problem lies in Line 28 - Additional child tax credit from Schedule 8812. As you said my 1040 has $6000 reported there and they have changed it to $2710.20.
