No. You cannot "save" just enough income to get the Additional Child Tax Credit. You would have to exclude the full amount available, if you choose the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion, for the tax year which is $126.500 for tax year 2024. If you use the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion, you do not qualify for the Child Tax Credit or additional child tax credit
