Thank you so much! Haven't thought about that. When it asked me if I live with my child for 12 months, I instinctively put "NO"...He is only 1 month old! But I guess from a tax standpoint he lived with me for all year 2018...Thanks again for your help!

You are very welcome, I'm happy to help!

I have a similar question. TurboTax told me I received the $2,000 credit, when in reality I only received $1,000 to my refund amount. I figured this out by deleting my daughters info and watched the amount decrease by exactly $1K. She's almost 2 now and I checked the "months lived" also and its correct. My tax liability is still definitely high enough to be able to be reduced by the full $2,000. My income is well below the $400K threshold for married couples. The only thing I've come across so far is something about being self employed. I don't understand what that has to do with this credit. My wife has a VERY small business, very new, and it was actually negative this year. Im not sure why that would cause me to lose some of the CTT...

I am having the same problem for my children.  The software is not deducting the full $2k/child and I do not come close to meeting the $400K threshold.  I went back and double checked the info I entered for both children.  I'm thinking there is an error with the software?

I updated my software and it appears to be calculating correctly now.  

Are you not using Turbo Tax Online? Thats what im using, so I would assume its up to date...
