Child Tax Credit
With the Child Tax Credit, you may be able to reduce the federal income tax you owe by up to $1,000 for each qualifying child under the age of 17.
The credit may be limited if your adjusted gross income (AGI) exceeds the phase-out threshold for your filing status. TaxACT walks you through the process, determining your eligibility for the Child Tax Credit and automatically calculating the credit into your tax refund.
