Are you waiting for a W2?  Did you have any income?  Did you get paid cash like for self employment work?

Do you mean you did not work and are trying to get the child tax credit?  If you did not work in 2023, you cannot get the child tax credit.   You must have income from working---either W-2 income or self-employment income.

AND….If you have children but had  little or no income, it raises the question of how you and the children were supported.  There may be another tax-paying adult who can claim you and/or the children as dependents.
