Additional child credit

It said I needed to fill out a form for the additional child credit before I could file my taxes, yet it still let me file my taxes. They sent me an email saying that the form was ready but when I clicked on the link they sent it takes me to the home page of turbo tax. Is there a way to get this form and do I need to fill it out if my taxes are already filed?

The ACTC is completed automatically and you could not efile successfully if it was not ready to file. Sounds like the form was ready earlier than expected and the email was sent in error based on the original date. Ignore the email if the return was filed successfully.
