@bluedawg What tax year are you asking about?
For tax year 2021 you had to enter the information for both spouses for the advance monthly child tax credit payments. Each of you would have received letter 6419 for that. The CTC amounts for 2021 were $3600 for children younger than 6, and $3000 for children aged 6 to 17. The remaining part of the CTC you could get for 2021 was on line 28 of your 2021 Form 1040.
The tax laws have changed for 2022.
If you are asking about tax year 2022, the "old" rules are back for the child tax credit. The CTC is $2000, with a maximum "refundable" amount of $1500 -- the additional child tax credit. You can only get the CTC for 2022 for children YOUNGER than 17 at the the end of 2022.
Look at your 2022 Form 1040 to see the child-related credits you received
