Can my Child Tax Credit be offset if my spouse or I owe past-due child support?
Yes. Refunds of an overpayment of a tax liability, including the portion to which your Child Tax Credit relates, may be reduced (that is, offset) for overdue taxes from previous years or other federal or state debts that you owe.
If you receive a refund after you file your 2021 tax return, any remaining Child Tax Credit amount to which you may be entitled may be a part of the calculation of whether you have an overpayment of your 2021 income tax liability. A refund of this overpayment may be subject to offset for past-due child support.
This is different from advance Child Tax Credit payments, which were not reduced (that is, offset) for past-due child support.
Important Note for Spouses: You can file Form 8379, Injured Spouse Allocation, with your 2021 tax return to get your share of a joint refund that would otherwise be applied to your spouse’s debt.
Form 8379 is filed by one spouse (the injured spouse) on a jointly filed tax return when the joint overpayment was (or is expected to be) applied (offset) to a past-due obligation of the other spouse. By filing Form 8379, the injured spouse may be able to get back his or her share of the joint refund.

My child’s other parent and I have agreed that, for Federal income tax purposes, I'll claim our child for each odd-numbered year while the other parent will claim our child for each even-numbered year. The child’s other parent claimed the Child Tax Credit for our child on their 2020 tax return and received advance Child Tax Credit payments in 2021.
Will I still be able to claim the full Child Tax Credit for my child?
What is True.
Yes. You will be able to claim the full amount of the Child Tax Credit for your child on your 2021 tax return – even if the other parent received advance Child Tax Credit payments for that child.
The other parent should have unenrolled from receiving advance Child Tax Credit payments, but their decision will not affect your ability to claim the 2021 Child Tax Credit. The other parent may owe additional tax equal to the total amount of the advance Child Tax Credit payments that they received for your child.
