Hello I received an amended unemployment refund around July for around $1000 I have two children I only received one child tax credit in July am I going to expect any more or do I have to wait to file my taxes next year to receive my child tax credits?

Hi SFG6255.

There is a calculator for the 2021 Child Tax Credit in this article.

The Advanced credit is only half of the new 2021 Child Tax Credit split out monthly from July to December. Are you expecting the full amount for each child? Or are you only receiving half the credit for only one child. Here is the IRS link with all the Advanced Child Tax Credit information and access to your account information on it:
