Deductions & credits

The advanced payments are not income and will not be reported as income on a your 2021 tax return.

TurboTax starts out by giving you the full child tax credit, but you have to enter the amount of advance payments you already received so then the software reconciles the full amount with the amount already sent to you between July and December.
