Be sure you said the new baby lived with you the WHOLE YEAR! Go back and check that.

If you had a child born in 2021- Add them under My Info. You need to answer 2 questions…..

Did your child live with you for the whole year? Answer YES even if they were born late in the year (even on Dec 31).

Then was at least half of child's expenses paid by CHILD? Usually is NO.

The third stimulus and all other child related credits are automatic if you complete the entire interview from start to finish. The screen referred to in the previous answer is where sleep deprived parents usually make a mistake so if you are not getting all the credits you should go back and fix this screen:
