Also---you are assuming you get $4000 child tax credit. With only $3000 of income from working you will not get that. The refundable portion of the child tax credit is based on how much you earned. You get the refundable "additional child tax credit" on amounts over $2500 of earned income. So you would be able to get 15% of about $500 in additional child tax credit (about $75) IF your children have Social Security numbers. If the kids do not have SSN's you do not get the child tax credit.
