I only made around 600-700 back on my taxes can i still claim my 2 year old daughter she's never been claimed can i get the tax money back on her?

Yes, you can claim your child.  Why hasn't she ever been claimed?   You have to amend if you already filed.

Would I get more tax money back for her? How do i go about this would you know? & I've just haven't worked & no one else could claim her so she's never been claimed. Thank you for responding.

Yes, you are most likely eligible for credits with a dependent.  Have you already e-filed your return or not?

I got everything set up on turbotax but haven't confirmed it yet because it's saying ill only get like  $240 back all together.

[aprilwatson55]

Okay so I tried to go to my info & I did it she's my dependent but they are still saying ill get back the same amount....

The amount of your Earned income credit (EIC) is based on how much earned income you had.  If you had  very low earnings, your EIC will be relatively low as well.

No unfortunately....

Sign in to your account and click on Pick up where I left off.    Then click on ''My Info'' on the left menu.  This is where all your personal information is listed.  Scroll down that page and click on ''Add a Dependent''.  Enter your child's info and answer all the questions.  Depending on your earnings, you may be eligible for certain credits.  This is the case as long as YOU are not a dependent on someone else's return.  

If you had earned income in previous years, you may want to file a tax return or amend the return you did file if you did not claim your dependent (and were not a dependent on someone's return).
