After you file

"In addition,  one of  my child has SSN, another one has ITIN, so the overall child tax credit could be 2000 + 500 = $2500, not sure why IRS said it could be just $1500."

 

Yes, so if you did receive 1,000 advance payments, and the IRS says it should be a 1,500 credit, that would get you to the 2,500 for both children. 

 

Glad you figured that out.
