The child is 17 and the date of birth on the information worksheet shows that. This question was automatically answered by my software as yes. That would be correct if the question were correctly stated as "Is the child under age 18?". The instructions to Form 1040 under "What's New" confirm the child tax credit applies to a child under age 18. The program correctly calculated the credit but the question as printed is not answered correctly.

Some text change Intuit programmers missed.... as long as the calculation is correct I wouldn't worry about it.
This was reported and should be updated in the program at this time. Thanks!!
