Deductions & credits

That will be fine. 

Asking about Form 8812 for Taxpayers with no dependents is a safeguard for TurboTax to not let any Taxpayer who received Advance Child Tax Credit Payments to not "slip through" without reporting the payments. 

 

It would slow down the processing of that tax return. 

 

The IRS has the payments on record, and will not look for them reported on your return since they did not send you any payments. 

HOWEVER

The information the IRS has on record is not shared with TurboTax, so TurboTax asks. 

If it is irrelevant, Form 8812 is not generated.
