I have a client who generated adoption credit in 2016 and have been taking some each year and carrying over to each year after due to low income limits. This year the carryover credit is showing up on the carryover worksheet line 19, and I have entered all the information on the Adoptive child worksheet. The amount flows thru to the adoption carryover computation worksheet however it does not generate a form 8839. What am I missing? They are clearly below the income limits. When I go to look at form 8839 it shows no information other than Line 3 being checked no which is incorrect. On the Adoptive child worksheet the box is checked yes for did you file form 8839 for a prior year and yes child has credit carryover. I appreciate any help. Thanks.
