My ex husband received the earned income credit from August - December. I am now claiming our child. How do I report his credit

You mean the Child Tax Credit?  You don't enter what he got.  You enter you didn't get the payments.  You can get the full amount on your return.  The credit will be on line 28 if you qualify for it.   Your ex may have to pay some back.

Did your ex also get the 1,400 Stimulus payment for the child?   You can get that too and he doesn't need to pay it back.  It will be on 1040 line 30.  When it asks how much you got do not include any amounts he got for the child.
