Look at your 2018 tax return to see the child-related /dependent credits you received:

Child tax credit line 12a

Additional Child Tax Credit line 17b (schedule 8812)

Credit for Other Dependents line 12a

Earned Income Credit (EIC) line 17a

Child and Dependent Care Credit line 12 (comes from Schedule 3 Form 2441)

The dependents you listed are on the first page of your Form 1040 below your address.

Unfortunately this only works if you already paid. I don't do that until I actually file.

You can preview your tax return, or even just your Form 1040 alone, before filing. You may be asked to go ahead and make payment now, depending on which option you select. See the instructions below.
