Great question! I understand you have not received the advance payment of the 2021 Child Tax Credit. The IRS used data from your filed 2020 tax return.
Take a look at your 2020 tax return, Form 1040. Look at the dependents listed on your return, and then to the right of their name to column (4). If there is a check mark in the little box under Child Tax credit, than you received the Child Tax Credit on your 2020 tax return. If there is a check mark in the little box under Credit for other dependents, than you received the Other Dependent Credit, not the Child Tax Credit.
There are eligibility requirements to receive the Child Tax Credit. Here are the requirements for your review.
If you are eligible and did not receive the Child Tax Credit on your 2020 tax return, that could be the reason you have not received the advance payment. Take a look at your 2020 tax return.
