No, Social Security does not send you anything about the child tax credit.  Your child must have a Social Security number in order to qualify for the CTC, if that is what you mean.  If your child only has an ITIN then instead of the child tax credit you can get the $500 credit for other dependents.


CREDIT FOR OTHER DEPENDENTS
