Hello Robert44,
Congratulations for your new bundle of joy!!
Yes, of course, you would be able to claim your son as your dependent for the whole year 2023.
Child Tax Credit is up to $2,000 but it is phased out at higher income levels, see link below.
See link below to determine whether you can claim your partner as a dependent.
I am also providing some additional links about Child Care Credit and Earned Income Credit, that may or may not apply to you.
