Deductions & credits

If you have children, it is likely TurboTax has calculated and claimed those credits for you.  If the Additional Child Tax Credit or Earned Income Credit are not claimed on your return, that message does not apply to you.  If you are unsure, just preview your tax return and check to see if you have either of those credits listed.

If you do not claim children, keep in mind, that individuals without dependents are eligible for the Earned Income Credit too, depending on their income.
