Question

If I filled my taxes before the child tax credit was increased at the end of March, do I have to amend my taxes to receive it?

Found more info.....

Beginning in tax year 2021(the taxes you file in 2022) the Child Tax Credit will be expanded. The bill increases the amount that families claiming the Child Tax Credit receive from $2,000 to:

$3,600 for each child under 6
$3,000 for each child age 6-17
