The Child Tax Credit (CTC) helps working families offset the cost of raising children. It is worth up to $1,000 per eligible child (under age 17 at the end of the tax year). The CTC includes a refundable component, the Additional Child Tax Credit. Like the EITC, the CTC increases with earnings, but unlike the EITC, the first $3,000 in earnings does not count when determining the CTC. Families receive a refund equal to 15 percent of their earnings above $3,000, up to the credit's full $1,000-per-child value.
That depends on your income. The child tax credit lets you reduce your federal income tax bill by up to $1,000 for each qualifying child under the age of 17 that you claim as a dependent. For 2017, the child tax credit is up to $1,000 per child. The child tax credit is just that â a tax credit. Itâs not a deduction. Because itâs a tax credit, it directly reduces the amount you owe the IRS. So, if your tax liability is $3,000 but youâre eligible for, say, $800 of child tax credit, you now owe $2,200. The child tax credit is non-refundable. That means that if youâre eligible for $3,000 in tax credits but only owe the IRS $2,000, you wonât get the $1,000 difference refunded to you.
