@lilerica45 If your BF owes back child support then his tax refund can be seized for the child support he owes. And..sorry, but if you do not work or receive any taxable income, you have nothing to enter on a 2022 income tax return, so you are not going to get a refund.
You still have not clarified whether you were asking about tax year 2021 or 2022. If you are asking about tax year 2021, then for that year ONLY, you could file a 2021 tax return even if you had no earnings, and claim your own children in order to get the child tax credit and/or the recovery rebate credit for them. That would only be for 2021. For 2022, next year, you will not be eligible for any child-related credits since you say you did not work.
If your BF already filed a tax return and claimed your children, then you have another problem....the children cannot be claimed on two tax returns. Did he claim them? Is he their bio-dad? If he already claimed them and received a refund for claiming them---even if the refund was seized for his delinquent child support--- then you have a very messy issue. Please provide some details.
