Deductions & credits

@allliekatt1 We are not sure what you are trying to ask about, but this thread began with a user who wanted to know about getting the refundable child tax credit while receiving disability benefits.  If your only income is Social Security disability, you are not eligible to get the refundable child tax credit.  That credit is based on having income from working.   There was only one tax year in which you could have received the credit while only getting SS disability---that was for 2021, but the tax laws changed after that one year and went back to the "old" rules.
