Deductions & credits

@Dna OKC - if you can't use all the Solar credit, it will carry over to the following year.

 

up to $500 for each child is considered 'non-refundable' and will be prioritized in front of the Solar credit.  Both of these credits can reduce Line 22 to as low as zero. 

 

the up to $1500 per child is a separate part of the CTC and you get it even if Line 22 is zero.
