Introduction. The child tax credit is a credit that may reduce your tax by as much as $1,000 for each of your qualifying children. The additional child tax credit is a credit you may be able to take if you are not able to claim the full amount of the child tax credit.
This FAQ applies to 2017, the current tax year. Under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, the Child Tax Credit increases to $2,000 per qualifying child in tax year 2018. This FAQ will be updated with the 2018 limits in January 2019, when taxpayers start filing 2018 returns. If you have kids, youâre probably wondering if they qualify for the Child Tax Credit. It make sense: Each qualifying child you claim on your tax return can put up to $1,000 in your pocket. This credit, not to be confused with the Child and Dependent Care Credit, is in addition to the $4,050 exemption you get for each dependent. However, not every child qualifies. To qualify for the Child Tax Credit in 2016, your child must fill all of these requirements: Be born on or after January 1, 2000.
