Deductions & credits

@Fishingfam22  said "we make less then 50 thousand a year and qualify for child tax credits".

 

That means you will owe no tax* and will actually get a refund through the refundable portion of the child tax credit.  Your employers are withholding the correct amount (zero).

 

*$50,000 - $26,000 standard deduction = $24,000 taxable income.  The tax on that is about $2500.  The $6000 child tax credit (3 x $2000) will result in you getting a ~$3500 refund.
