The child tax credit is a credit available to taxpayers who have children under the age of 17. The credit is worth up to $2,000 per child. The credit is refundable, which means that even if you don’t owe any taxes, you can still receive the credit as a refund.
What is the Child Tax Credit?
The Child Tax Credit is a tax credit worth up to $2,000 per qualifying child and $500 per qualifying dependent. The credit begins to phase out when adjusted gross income reaches $200,000 for single filers and $400,000 for married filers filing joint returns.
To qualify, the child must be younger than 17 at the end of the tax year for which you claim the credit. There are also certain residency requirements. The child must have a Social Security number that is valid for employment in order to claim the credit.
The Child Tax Credit is different from the Child and Dependent Care Credit, which helps offset the cost of childcare so that you can work or look for work.
