I didn't receive any advanced child tax money during the year. Is there a way to see if my child's father got them? We are divorced and he claimed her in 2020.

You do not have to concern yourself with whether the other parent received the advance payments since it has no effect on you.   If you are claiming your child on your 2021 return, you can get the full amount of the CTC.  It will show up on line 28 of your tax return.

Don't worry about that or the past.   Are you claiming her for 2021?  Then you can get it all now if you didn't get any of the advance, even if he got it.  If you didn't get any Advance then enter 0.  

Same for the 3rd Stimulus payment.   You can get it all now.  It's a loophole in the IRS when parents alternate claiming the child.
