How do I get advance child

If I already filed my 2020 tax return, but my kids were claimed on someone else 2020 tax return, how do I go about gettin the advance child tax credit for them now? They have been in my household since April 2021

Deductions & credits

I’ve tried that, it says I’m not eligible but where my children are in my care/live with me I thought I could maybe get the payments but where they we’re claimed already on 2020 tax return????

Where they were claimed on a 2020 return is immaterial to the 2021 advance ... try  this again... https://www.irs.gov/credits-deductions/advance-child-tax-credit-eligibility-assistant

Interesting ... I just tried that tool and first question knocks you out ... so at this time it seems like advance payments will not be allowed for your situation.  Check back later.
