Calculate the amount by yourself

https://www.cnn.com/2021/07/12/politics/irs-child-tax-credit-calculator/index.html

 

What are the dates for the other payments?

The IRS says the monthly payments will be disbursed on these dates:

  • July 15
  • August 13
  • September 15
  • October 15
  • November 15
  • December 15

What if I earn above the threshold?

The Child Tax Credit is still available for people who earn over $95,000 and joint filers earning $170,000 — but they will receive the regular CTC of $2,000 per child. 

That $2,000 tax credit is available to single taxpayers earning less than $200,000 and married couples earning less than $400,000.

 

I'd rather get a big refund next year — can I opt out?

As noted above, the expanded CTC provides a $3,600 credit for each child under 6 years old and $3,000 for each child age 6 to 17. 

The monthly payments represent half of the total credit, with the cash deposits running from July through December. For example, a family with one child under 6 will receive half of the $3,600 credit in cash, or $1,800, which will be split into six monthly checks of $300 each. 

The remainder of the CTC is claimed when you file your 2021 taxes early next year. 

Some taxpayers who want to get a bigger tax refund in 2022 have asked if they could opt out of the monthly payments and simply claim the entire $3,600 or $3,000 tax credit on their 1040s. The answer is yes, Steber said.

To opt out, taxpayers should go to the Child Tax Credit Update Portal.

Will I need to pay taxes on the CTC payments? 

No, because the CTC payments aren't considered income, Steber said. 

"Much like the stimulus payments, these are tax credits," he noted. 

But recipients should keep track of how much they receive from the IRS, because they will need to reconcile those payments on their 1040s in early 2022. That's because half of the CTC will be claimed on your tax return, so you'll need to know how much you received to accurately report that information.

Conflicting information on this

one website says atleast one parent has to be USC and the Kid obviously has to be a USC to get the credit

But you say you got it , that makes it interesting

$2000 is a credit which reduces your tax liability. It is not direct cash
