    Once you enter your dependent's information, TurboTax will compute the credits for you.

     

    Here is how to enter your dependents:

     

    Navigate to My Info, Your household, select the first dependent. 

     

    • Choose "My child", continue and be sure their name, date of birth and proper citizenship is complete. 
    • Continue, and answer the question about living arrangements and parents. 
    • Continue, and answer any less common situations, if applicable. 
    • Lastly, enter the child's SSN and be sure that "Not valid for employment is printed..." is NOT checked.

    @gonzjass21 the credit won't appear until you have entered your income documents... is that the problem?
