Once you enter your dependent's information, TurboTax will compute the credits for you.

Here is how to enter your dependents:

Navigate to My Info, Your household, select the first dependent.

Choose "My child", continue and be sure their name, date of birth and proper citizenship is complete.
Continue, and answer the question about living arrangements and parents.
Continue, and answer any less common situations, if applicable.
Lastly, enter the child's SSN and be sure that "Not valid for employment is printed..." is NOT checked.

@gonzjass21 the credit won't appear until you have entered your income documents... is that the problem?
