    Is the amount sent/issued by the IRS the same as the refund amount shown on your federal tax return Form 1040 Line 35a? - https://www.irs.gov/refunds


    If not, then go to this IRS website for information on reduced refunds - https://www.irs.gov/taxtopics/tc203

     

    TurboTax would have no information concerning who or who did not claim a dependent on a tax return.

    If I understand correctly, you have children and did not get a Child Tax Credit.

     

    • Have you printed or can you see your tax return?
    • What does the tax return show?

    From the left sidebar

    1. Select Tax tools
    • You may have to minimize both the Federal and State options by clicking the Down Arrows on the Sidebar.
    • You will then clearly see Tax Tools
    • Click the arrow to up to see additional options
    1. Click Tools
    2. A Menu will pop up
    3. Select View tax summary
    4. On the left panel click Preview my 1040
    5. Line 16 is the Child Tax Credit
    6. Line 28 is the Additional Child tax credit

    Some Key numbers to compare:

    • 11 Adjusted Gross Income
    • 12 Deductions
    • 15 Taxable income
    • 16 Tax
    • 19 Child Tax Credit
    • 26 Earned Income Tax Credit
    • 28 Additional Child Tax Credit
    • 33 Total Payments
    • 34 Overpayment
    • 35a Refund
    • 37 Amount you owe
