Deductions & credits

The child tax credit would be subtracted from your income tax to determine your tax due or refund. As such, your refund would not necessarily include the amount of your credit in it. For instance, if your tax was $2,000 and your child tax credit was $2,000, your refund would be the difference, $0. It would not be $2,000.

 

You child tax credit would be reflected on line 19 and/or line 28 of your Form 1040.

 

To view your form 1040 and schedule 1 to 3:

 

  1. Choose Tax Tools from your left menu bar in TurboTax Online while working in your program
  2. Choose Tools
  3. Choose View Tax Summary
  4. See the Preview my 1040 option in the left menu bar and click on it
  5. Choose the Back option in the left menu bar when you are done
