My son is on my form as a dependent.  He is 20, not a student and for some reason, a form 8862 is an entry to change.  Why?

Taxpayers complete Form 8862 and attach it to their tax return if:

 

  • Their earned income credit (EIC), child tax credit (CTC)/additional child tax credit (ACTC), credit for other dependents (ODC) or American opportunity credit (AOTC) was reduced or disallowed for any reason other than a math or clerical error.
  • They want to take the credit(s) and meet all the requirements.

You can delete it if you don't need it.
