You should have received a letter from the IRS telling you how much they sent you for the Advanced Child Tax Credit payments. If you did not, then you will need to log into the IRS Portal for Child Tax Credit to see what they sent you.
Even if your ex kept the payments, you will still need to report the payments on your return and it will be deducted from the amount you will receive with your return. Whether or not your ex kept it, will not change the reportability of the payment. If you do not report the correct amount, the IRS will send you a letter telling you there is a problem with your return which will make it take longer for them to process and for you to receive your refund.
