2021 Child Tax Credit

How can I to opt out of 2021 child income tax besides using the IRS portal?

The Child Tax Credit Update Portal on the IRS web site is the only way to opt out of the advance payments, at least as of now.

If you cannot log in to stop the advance payments and you will not be eligible on the 2021 return then you will have to pay back some of all of the advance.  The smart thing to do is put the money aside so you have it to pay back next year.
