Form 8862 - Information To Claim Earned Income Credits After Disallowance. 

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) 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.
Form 8862 is available in all versions of TurboTax.  To access it, while logged in and in your return, click on search and type "Form 8862" and hit Enter.  Click on "Jump to Form 8862" to complete the form.
