I am qualified for Child Tax Credit of $12,600. I've gotten half of it from AdvCTC payments. I need to file a schedule 8812 with my tax return to get the rest. I'm at the point of filing my return and I don't see that TurboTax has added schedule 8812 to my tax return. Is this something I have to do separately? I don't want to have to fix my return after sending it because TurboTax "missed" it.

The amount of the credit less your advance payments will be the final credit amount.
@KrisD15 That didn't answer my question.
I know that I am well below the $150,000 phase out and that a Schedule 8812 is required to get the rest of the Child Tax Credit.
The problem is, TurboTax doesn't seem to be including the Schedule 8812 with my return. Is this a TurboTax problem? Or is this something I have to make sure to include on my own?
Did you follow the steps above?
Do you have anything listed on your 1040 lines 19 and/or 28?
It turns out I had entered everything correctly to begin with, I just couldn't find the schedule I was looking for. I found it by clicking Tax Data at the top and opening the form from there. It was tricky because the amount I entered as the AdvCTC was the same amount as the CTC I was getting back. I wanted to make sure that the schedule was included in the return per Letter 6419.
