Okay so I recently did my taxes on TurboTax which was difficult this time I was just wondering why am I getting only 2800 back if I claimed the child tax credit?? And also it says I’m getting 6400 back but the accepted tax return says only 2800???

Please Clarify a few things.

 

There are a number of things that could affect this.

 

The Credit is  $3,600 for children ages 5 and under at the end of 2021; and. $3,000 for children ages 6 through 17 at the end of 2021.  Where did the $6,400 come from?

 

Did you get any of the Advanced tax Credit?  Be sure you reported this correctly.

 

Is the $2,800 your refund, or is it the amount stated for the Child Tax Credit?

The 6400 is the child tax credit plus what I didn’t receive last year. I shouldn’t get the advanced tax credit that has nothing to do with me & im guessing 2800 is my refund but I also claimed my son so I’m very confused.
