Turbo Tax must have a glitch than because we have two eligible children, and it is only giving us credit of $3000 on line 28 of the 1040. Both kids are full supported in on household under 17. 


Did you receive an advance child tax credit in 2021 for the children?  If so, was the total amount received $3,000?  If that is also correct then the Child Tax Credit on your federal tax return Form 1040 Line 28 will be $3,000.

Your total credit for the two children age 6 or older and under the age 18 would be $6,000 less the total advance child tax credit received of $3,000.
