The problem is I have credits, but I'm not getting them because the TurboTax program is showing that I'm getting $3800 from the Child Tax Credit on the credit limit worksheet, when on the 1040 it shows I'm only receiving $3300, which means on the 1040 we show to need to pay $500 in taxes that we shouldn't be because we have the adoption credit to cover it. Either we should show that we should receive $3800 from the CTC credit on the 1040 or on the credit limit worksheet we should show that we only received $3300 from the CTC.
My problem is that we have credit, but $500 is in limbo since there is some mixup in how things are being calculated.
We received $3300 in advance, but we should either show another $500 in credit for CTC or we should be able to access $500 more from the adoption credit.
Does that make sense?
