What tax year are you asking about? And if you mean tax year 2022---what did your spouse enter on an income tax return? If she had no income at all----all of the child-related credits are based on having income from working. So what did she do? Did she prepare a joint return and enter something for income for YOU on it? If she filed married filing separately, or even head of household, without income from working, she would get nothing. Who did the children live with? When did you separate and begin living apart? Provide some details..
