When will the American tax credit be available on my tax forms? I am estimating my taxes and I qualify but I am not getting any credit.

[DoninGA]

There is no such thing as an American tax credit.  What credit do you think you are eligible to receive?

There is no credit called the "American tax credit."  Are you confused and are you asking about the child tax credit?  Or something else?  Do you mean the American Opportunity Credit?  What do you think the credit is for?

When will my forms be ready?

Historically, IRS tax forms start becoming available in January, with a few stragglers (most notably Form 1040X) getting finalized in February.

State tax forms can become available for filing any time between December and late February, depending on the state and the tax form.

For specific forms and dates, refer to the Forms Availability Table for your TurboTax product, see the related information below.

Can I Still Work On My Return Before My Forms are Ready?

Yes, according to the following:

Federal Taxes
You can still work on your return and finish most of it. Once your forms become available, we’ll create the forms and include all of your info.

You’ll only be able to e-file or print your return once the forms are available.

While you’re working on your return, we’ll ask if you want to receive email updates when your forms become available.

State Taxes 
If your forms aren’t available, you’ll get a message asking you to return once they become available.

While you’re working on your return, you’ll have a chance to let us know you want to receive email updates when your forms become available.
