Deductions & credits
The child and dependent care credit is a nonrefundable credit so it cannot reduce your tax below zero. It is likely that after other credits were applied, only $200 of this credit was needed to bring your total tax bill down to $0.
You can check to be sure that is what is happening by viewing your Tax Summary. Here is how to do that:
- Log in to your tax return at TurboTax.com.
- Click on Tax Tools on the left side of the screen (you may need to click on Continue in the center first).
- Click on Tools.
- In the box that pops up in the center, click on View Tax Summary.
If you see a 0 for Total Tax, then that is what has happened in your case.
