Child Tax Credit

[bbPrescott]

We'd received two child tax credit checks this year (July and Aug) and then they stopped coming.  Logging in to my IRS portal, it states "under review".  As an aside, the IRS still hasn't processed my 2020 return (although they gladly deposited my check attached to my manual filing).  Do you think that they are holding up further child tax credit checks because my return is being processed or is this situation unrelated?

Yes, your advance child tax payments will not process since your 2020 filed tax return hasn't processed.

I hope you find this information helpful!
