The Child Tax Credit (CTC) is a non-refundable federal tax credit that applies to taxpayers who have children and meet certain requirements. To qualify, your child must be under 17 years old, have a valid Social Security number, and be listed as a dependent on your tax return. This credit can reduce your tax amount on a dollar-for-dollar basis, effectively eliminating your tax bill.
For the year 2023 (when you file your taxes in 2024), if your modified adjusted gross income is $400,000 or below for married filing jointly, or $200,000 or below for all other taxpayers, each eligible child's CTC is worth $2,000. If you qualify, you can receive a refundable portion called the Additional Child Tax Credit, worth up to $1,600 per child. Some families may also receive monthly payments instead of waiting until tax time.
