Step 3: Verify Line 3 ChildBirthYr matches the e-File database
Use this when you need to correct the child’s birth year.
Confirm that the value entered for Line 3 (ChildBirthYr) matches the e-file database.
Step 4: Resubmit after corrections
Use this when you are ready to try the e-file submission again.
After updating the SSN and birth year for each child, resubmit the return.
