After you file

Hi @pk..

We received the ITIN for both the J2 visa holders (greatly appreciated your advice).

We have received a refund (CP12 notice) for this federal return already; both the ITINs have been issued as well.

 

Turbotax somehow applied the child tax credit of $2000 to our original return, which was denied by IRS.

We wish to claim our child as a dependent for the $500 credit using the ITIN-issued. Can you please let us know the steps to follow to amend the return for the year 2023 to file for this?

 

I changed the information to turbotax account information for the year 2023 after selecting "amend the return" option. After updating the child's ITIN, it reduces the credit from $2000 to $500. But the interface does not let us go ahead, and keeps bringing to the Review page with the message to be posted for the amendment (a text box with 160 characters allowed), after checking the return.

 

Looking forward your kind advice. Thank you so much in anticipation.

 

Regards,
