My final refund was $8,607. Is that after they took the $3,000 CTC that I already received or will my refund be different?


The advance child tax credits you received in 2021 and reported as receiving on the 2021 tax return are not included in the federal tax refund.  Unless you did NOT report receiving the advance payments on the 2021 return, your refund will change and be delayed since the IRS will have to adjust your tax return.
