Filing a W-2 as a single and no claim on children or any depedents

I was filing a W-2 as a single and with no claim of any children or dependents and for some reason, it's asking fill in number of qualifying children for a schedule 8812 on the federal review section

 

Would anyone know why this is happening

The questions are being asked because of the Advanced Child Tax Credit.   Everyone whether you have dependents or not will have to answer these questions.    

 

If you have no qualifying child, just put a "0" in the box.
