Deductions & credits

Ok, line 28 shows the $8400 and my refund on line 35a  of $5,383. But I thought I would receive the remainder/missing payments that were pending when I filed my tax return. On my IRS transcript it shows the $8400 on the date of 4-15-2022 as a credit which I thought meant I would receive the money on that date. But apparently not. I amended my taxes for 2020 which I thought I was supposed to do since I filed before the the American Rescue Plan took affect. I guess I really screwed up. So I guess I'll never receive a second refund for the remainder amount and the IRS will automatically apply it to 2022 taxes for next year?
