Solved: Why is the credit for having 2 dependents not showing up in my refund total?

Why is the credit for having 2 dependents not showing up in my refund total?

I have two children and I am filing as head of household. It gave me a total of what credit amount I was going to receive for each child and then it doesn't show up as part of my total refund

Are you confused about the $4050 personal exemption ("tax break") you saw for each child? That lowers the amount of your income that you are taxed on. It is not a refund. Or are you missing something else?
