After entering my deduction information, the deductions screen in TurboTax shows a Child and Dependent Care Credit of $4k and a Child and Other Dependent Tax Credit of $6k. I believe this is correct and I am entitled to both. However, when I get to the Deduction and Credits summary page, it shows a Dependent Care Credit of $0, a Child and Other Dependent Tax Credit of $0, and an Additional Child Tax Credit of $6k. I don't understand why the names of the deductions have changed and, more importantly, why I'm not getting the $4k credit. Can anyone help?

Please check line 31 on Form 1040 if the refundable part of Child and Dependent Care Credit is listed there (or check Schedule 3 line 13g).
To preview Form 1040:
Please see What is the Child and Dependent Care Credit? for additional information.
I also saw Child and Dependent Care Credit as $0 in the Fed summary page, even though in "Deductions & Credits" page it has a non-zero value. I think this could be a summary page bug. As the other comment says, the number in 1040 is correct.
There is another way to see if you get the credit or not.
