If my wife and I (filing joint) updated our bank info for the advance Child Tax Credit payments (midway through the payments), how much do I put that she received vs me?

I looked at the IRS portal, and I see her payments and my payments.  It all adds up to correct total.  But I'm not sure how to divvy out which spouse got how much since our bank info changed mid way through the payments and some payments got split between spouses and some didn't.

As long as the correct total amount is reported it doesn’t matter how it is split between the two of you.

The IRS is sending out letter 6419 to you.  It will show the amount of advance child tax credit that you received during 2021.  Enter the information from that letter carefully.   The remaining amount of CTC that you can receive will show up on line 28 of your 2021 Form 1040.
