Anyone know why the tax planner in Proseries defaults to including a "refundable child tax credit" of $1,700 under "payments" for everyone, even people without children or dependents?

Yes, its been reported, but hasnt been fixed.  You can use Override and make it a zero if needed.

Do you agree that when you do the override to fix the fake child tax credit, you cannot e-file unless you turn off the error/override check?  We usually always have that on & this is slowing us down big time on e-filing.  In the past, I don't think overrides in the tax planner would hinder the e-file.

It doesn't hinder e-filing.  I just did one the other day.  You just get a friendly reminder that you overrode something but it isn't a deal breaker for transmitting the return.
