Go back into your tax return (if you can't get in click on ADD A STATE)

Then take the following steps:

  1. Click Federal
  2. Deductions and Credits
  3. Scroll down to EITC click Revisit
  4. Walk through the questions until you get to Do any of these uncommon situations apply
  5. Check "I got a letter/notice from the IRS telling me to fill out an 8862 (see screenshot attached)
  6. Walk through the rest of the questions, and it will lead you to fill out the form.
  7. You can then print by going to Tax Tools>>>Print Center
  8. Then you will just print and mail to the address provided in your letter
