My son turned 17 in 2021, so why isn't he qualified for the 2021 CTC?
He was born in 2004. We are well under the income limit. He lived with us in the US all year long, and we received the advanced payments, but Turbotax says he doesn't qualify as a dependent, or for the Child Tax Credit (though they did at least acknowledge that we won't have to repay the advance, because we qualify for the repayment protection)?
The IRS says otherwise according to their Interactive Tax Assistant. They say he's a "qualifying person for the Child Tax Credit purposes."
What is going on? Add to this that we supposedly don't qualify for the EITC, even though we're below that income threshold, makes me think this edition of Turbotax is glitchy or plain ol' wrong.
