My client has 1 dependent in 2022 but had 2 in 2021.  He qualifies for the safe harbor meaning he does not need to repay the additional 1500.00 he received but when I fill out the 8812 it subtracts the whole 3000.00 received for both children and gives a 0 tax credit.

How do I record the 1500.00 that does not need to be repaid and still get the taxpayer the 1500.00 he should receive for the child in 2022.
