are you confusing the EITC with the CTC? there is no advance on the EITC.only the CTC. assuming you qualify for the EITC, if you have no qualifying dependents, the iRS is likely to catch the error and adjust your refund accordingly. if you have qualifying dependents the IRS will want Schedule EIC
if you have qualifying children for the CTC and got credits, the iRS will adjust your refund.
there are likely to be delays in the full processing of your return. do nothing now. wait until you get the refund or hear from the IRS.
