It is added to your other tax payments, it is not a separate refund. Your Total taxes from Line 24 are subtracted from your Total tax payments on Line 33. If you have an overpayment then that is entered on Line 34 as your federal tax refund.</P> Mon, 21 Feb 2022 20:38:34 GMT https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/taxes/discussion/re-i-received-half-the-child-tax-credit-in-2021-i-filed-my-2021-return-and-didn-t-see-where-to-claim/01/2506394#M898012 DoninGA 2022-02-21T20:38:34Z Re: I received half the child tax credit in 2021.
