I've also encountered the same issue, however, one my kids turned 18 in 2025 and I believe that TT is incorrectly only given me a $500 dependent tax credit for her. My understanding is that since she was 17 in Tax Year 2024 - I should get the full $2000 child tax credit for her.


The Child Tax Credit is only available for a child under the age of 17 in 2024.  If the child is age 17 or older in 2024 then they are eligible for the Other Dependent credit of $500.
