i opted out of the monthly payments on the irs website. i wanted the full credit at the end of the year. I claimed the kids on my 2020 taxes because i knew my ex wife would claim the kids in 2021 season. On my tax forms i said i received the $4200 but I did not. So now my ex -wife’s refund is still processing after 21 days. On my tax forms it does say i received the $4200 credit. i’m concerned. I thought turbo tax would automatically give me the credit if i said i didn’t get the monthly payments.
