Deductions & credits

@chadgrosskreutz  Check your entries on your dependents.  If you had a baby born last year (and congratulations if that's the case), you must mark that the baby lived with you for 12 months, even if the baby was born in December.  Otherwise, the baby will only calculate for the $500 "Other Dependent" Credit that would explain the amount of Child Tax Credit you are seeing being reported on your return.
