How do I fill in box 14 F for the AdvCTC (Advance Child Tax Credit) tax credit? What do I enter in the description and category?

[lawrie007]

It is not clear what to fill in on the description and category field from the letter we received from the IRS. Any help would be appreciated

The IRS is sending out letter 6419 to you.  It will show the amount of advance child tax credit that you received during 2021.  Enter the information from that letter carefully.   The remaining amount of CTC that you can receive will show up on line 28 of your 2021 Form 1040.

Click on Tax Tools on the left side of the screen. Click on Tools. Click on View Tax Summary. Click on Preview my 1040 on the left side of the screen.

NOTE:   The CTC is indeed a “credit” that can be applied toward any tax liability that you would otherwise have to pay as “tax due”  to the IRS.

The program will walk you thru this section ... just read each screen carefully to enter the info from the letter 6419 ... if you file jointly there will be 2 boxes on the screen instead of just one ...
