Child Tax Credit if child lives abroad with spouse

I am curious if I or my spouse can claim the 2024 Child Tax Credit under these circumstances:

 

1. Married Filing Jointly. My spouse has non-resident tax status but is treated as a resident since I work in the US and thus have tax residency status.

 

2. My child has US citizenship. My spouse and I do not have citizenship or PR status.


3. My child lived abroad with my spouse for the entire year of 2024.

 

Thanks for your opinion.
