When i try to file my colorado state tax, you are giving me the 800 tabor refund in form of a tax credit. that credit is ONLY for residents that were age 18 or older at the beginning of the tax year. Your software has a glitch there as i am still only 17, you need to fix this before many file and get that refund then spend it and colorado may ask for it back. I can also not file until that is fixed because im not going to claim something im not entitled to and they will ask for it back.
directly from the colorado state website:

- Were at least 18 years old when the tax year began,
- Do not have a Colorado income tax liability,
- Are not claiming a refund of wage withholding, and
- Are not otherwise required to file a Colorado return because you have no federal filing requirement.
