Deductions & credits

@tomb_1 No one can see your tax return---so it is not unreasonable to suggest making sure you are eligible.  We cannot see how much your income was.   And it has already been explained to you that you did receive the remaining child tax credit.    It is on your line 28 on your Form 1040.    Then in the lines following that line 28---do the math...follow the line by line calculations down to the bottom line.   If you did not have that $8400 on line 28 you would now owe the IRS over $3000.   Instead, you are still getting a tax refund.   Just not an $8400 refund.
