Question

Total Child Tax Credit given is $1800, not $3600? 1040 line 28 is $1800, am I missing the other half?

It's unclear that the credit started at $3600, and went down to $1800.

 

Total credit should be $3600.

    EDIT: Answered my own question with some testing. 

    From 1040 Line 28 is the total credit AFTER the prepayments.

     

    If received $900 in prepayments (half), Line 28 = 2700

    If received $1800 prepayments (full), Line = 1800
