Deductions & credits

@kristyrc1980 - first, let's make sure than when you plugged in the stimulus payments, TT was asking you for both payments SEPARTELY.  The software was updated this afternoon and if you only see one field to plug in the stimulus, log out and log back in so we are sure you have the up-to-date software.  There need to be 2 fields for this to work correctly, 

 

is your child listed in MyInfo correctly? look closely.  ss#? lived with you all year? when asked if THE CHILD provided more than 50% of her own support, you answered "NO'.  US citizen or resident alien? check it all closely.  

 

I just have this feeling that TT may not see your child as a dependent.

 

if you have paid for the return, pull up the Form 1040 and over to the right where your daughter is listed there is a check mark - it needs to be under the "child tax credit" column - if not, that is why the recovery rebate is not giving you the right answer,

 

post back what you find...we will figure this out!
