Deductions & credits
The first half of the child tax credit was the advanced portion you received from July to December 2021. You should have received a letter 6419 that lists the amount you were paid and the number of children that were covered.
The second half of the credit is a Refundable Child Tax credit. Your return will not report a non-refundable portion as there is no non-refundable portion it is Advanced Child Tax Credit and Refundable Child Tax Credit. The second half of the child tax credit will show on Line 28.
If you are using the online version go to "Tax Tools" then "Tools" then "View My Tax Summary" then click on "Preview my 1040" (it is shown to the left of the summary). Look at Line 28 and see if the remainder of your tax credit shows on this line.
If using a desktop version, click on Forms and go to the 1040 and look on Line 28.
