Why you received this letter
Under the American Rescue Plan, the IRS made monthly AdvCTC payments of up to half of your 2021 Tax Credit from July through December to help support families raising children.
If you're eligible for the credit, file Schedule 8812 with your 2021 income tax return to claim your remaining credit (for a total amount of up to $3,600 per child under age 6 and $3,000 per child age 6
through 17). • If you aren't eligible for the credit, file Schedule 8812 to determine if you must pay back some or all the monthly payments you received in 2021 and if you qualify for repayment protection (discussed below).
How the IRS determined your payment amounts Monthly payment amounts were initially based on information from an income tax return you filed or information you entered in the IRS non-filer sign-up tool in 2020 or 2021. Your monthly payment amount or how or where the IRS paid your payment may have changed based on information you provided the IRS through your 2020 income tax return if the IRS processed it after June, the Child Tax Credit Update Portal, or the dedicated IRS Child Tax Credit phone line. Review each monthly payment, including any changes, at IRS.gov/eteportal, and click "Manage Advance Payments." If you did not receive one or more payments, contact the IRS at 800-908-4184 before filing your return.
Repayment protection
You may not have to repay in full any AdvCTC payments that took into account more qualifying children (Box 2 above) than you claim on your 2021 income tax return (Schedule 8812). The repayment protection is based on your 2021 modified adjusted gross income (MAGI). You will not have to repay any AdvCTC
payments for non-qualifying children if your 2021 MAGI is under: • $60,000 if you are married and filing a joint return or if filing as a qualifying widow or widower.
• $50,000 if you are filing as head of household.
• $40,000 if you are a single filer or are married and filing a separate return.
