Get your taxes done using TurboTax

The Child Tax credit (CTC) for tax year 2022 is $2,000 per dependent child under age 17. However, the CTC is non-refundable, meaning it can only reduce your tax liability to zero but you will not receive any refund of the excess.

 

As your income is only $1,000 in 2022, your tax liability is most likely 0, so you will not receive the CTC.

 

However, you may be eligible for the additional Child Tax credit - ACTC (which can up be up to $1,500 per child. For this, form 8812 has to be filled. When you enter your income and other details in TurboTax, the program will determine if you are eligible or not to the ACTC.
