I have a client that is the custodial parent and is releasing the child tax credit to the father of the child. I have indicated that the child does qualify for the EIC and that they are not a dependent. The return appears to be calculating correctly but the child is showing up as dependent on the 1040 with no box checked as far as child/other dependent. It appears to be a system glitch that I did not have previously so I am wondering if anyone else has encountered this problem.
Thanks.
I am also using code Q. Very strange.
If this was a file you transferred in early January possible there was a program glitch. Are you too far into data entry to delete file and retransfer ?
remove that dependent line (right click, delete line in table) and re-enter it maybe?
Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, it still didn't work. Added the nondependent back to the 1040 without marking anything for the child/other tax credit.
