Налоговый вычет на детей: $2200 на ребенка, но только при наличии этого

Описание: Child tax credit: up to $2,200 per qualifying child, the IRS says, and the amount stays $2,200 for tax year 2026 (Rev. Proc. 2025-32). But some parents get nothing because of one missing number.

The rules (IRS):
1. Up to $2,200 per qualifying child under 17. Two kids: up to $4,400.
2. Up to $1,700 per child can come back as a refund (the Additional Child Tax Credit).
3. Full credit with income up to $200,000, or $400,000 if married filing jointly.

The missing number: you (or your spouse, if filing jointly) and each child need a Social Security number that is valid for employment and issued before the tax return due date, including extensions.

The $2,500 rule: you need at least $2,500 of earned income to get the refundable part.

Tip: if your child does not qualify, check the $500 credit for other dependents.
