    Make sure you indicate the newborn lived with you all year, all 12 months.   Carefully go through the set-up questions when adding the newborn.  When you enter the SSN, don't accidentally click the box that says the number is not valid for employment.   

     

    How do I add a dependent?

    Make sure you have entered your child as a dependent in My Info, and that you have entered the child's Social Security number.    Careful— do not say that your child’s SSN is not valid for employment.  If your child was born in 2024 make sure you said he lived with you the whole year.  There is an oddly worded question that asks if the child paid over half their own support.  Say NO to that question.
