You probably answered a question incorrectly in MY INFO.   Go back to MY INFO.   Click her name, and go slowly and carefully through the questions again.   Read every screen top to bottom.   Make sure you have entered your child as a dependent in My Info, and that you have entered the child's Social Security number.    Careful— do not say that your child’s SSN is not valid for employment.  If your child was born in 2025 make sure you said he lived with you the whole year.  There is an oddly worded question that asks if the child paid over half their own support.  Say NO to that question.  

You do not receive $ for the advance until the IRS accepts your e-file.  The IRS will begin to accept/reject e-files on January 26.   Before that date, only a very very few tax returns are accepted randomly  in small test batches by the IRS.

Do you have a Schedule C (self-employed) business, independent contractor, sole proprietor, etc.?   If so, I'm confused why it's a 1099-MISC.  You didn't answer the question above about what box of your Form 1099-MISC has income shown.
