After you file
@xmasbaby0 perfectly explained above how the Child Tax Credit is a part of the overall computation for your refund. It first reduces the amount of taxes computed which adds to your refund. See excerpt for tax form 1040 lines 19 and 28. Here is a visual for you.

Hope this helps. To view your return using TurboTax Online, follow these steps.
You can view your entire return or just your 1040 form before you e-file:
- Sign in to your TurboTax account
- Open or continue your return
- Select Tax Tools from the menu (if you don't see this, select the menu icon in the upper-left corner)
- With the Tax Tools menu open, you can then:
- Preview your entire return: Select Print Center and then Print, save or preview this year's return (you may be asked to register or pay first)
- View only your 1040 form: Select Tools. Next, select View Tax Summary in the pop-up, then Preview my 1040 in the left menu
