Question

Can you apply right now for an ITIN number and get CTC (the dependent meets the criteria of a qualifying child), or the ITIN number should had been issued before 2022?

If I remember correct, yes, you can apply for an ITIN and receive the $500 Child Tax Credit.  But the $2000-$3000 Child Tax Credit is limited to those who have a Social Security Number (and that must be received before the due date of the tax return).
