Question

I don't have my child's SSN yet. Can I file my taxes without his information and then file an amendment when I have his number to get the child credit?

    No.   You will not get the child tax credit if you do it that way.  Wait for the SSN---even if you need to get an extension and file after the April filing deadline.
