Deductions & credits

If you indicated that you received the 3rd stimulus payment then nothing is entered on Form 1040 Line 30 for the Recovery Rebate Credit, which has nothing to do with the Child Tax Credit.

 

The Child Tax Credit is entered on Form 1040 Line 28.  Since you have no dependents then nothing should be entered on Line 28.

You may be asked to complete the Schedule 8812 question for advanced child tax credits - 

Everyone is being asked this question since TurboTax does not know if the user was one who received these advances from the IRS in 2021.

 

Enter a 0 (zero) when asked to enter a number on the Schedule 8812. This will correct the issue and remove the Schedule 8812 from your tax return so that you can file the return.

 

Using the desktop editions, click on Forms.  When in Forms mode open the Form 1040 on the left side of the screen.

What is entered on Line 30 and on Line 28?
