You amended to get the child tax credit? It will be more than weeks--it can take months for the IRS to process an amended return. And...you are not going to "receive" $2000. The refundable portion of the CTC is a maximum of $1500.
You can watch for information here:

The maximum amount of the child tax credit is now $2000 per child; the refundable “additional child tax credit” amount is $1500. In order to get that credit, you have to have income from working. The credit is calculated based on the amount you earned above $2500 multiplied by 15%, up to the full $1500 per child. If the amount you earned was too low, you will not get the full $1500.
If your child is older than 16 at the end of 2022, you do not get the CTC. But you may still get the non-refundable $500 credit for other dependents instead.
