Confusing.</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>In your previous thread you asked if you could file as HOH and claim your dependent---but you only had $100 of income that you earned.&nbsp; &nbsp;You are not eligible to get any sort of child-related credits for tax year 2022 without income earned by working, and $100 is just not going to be enough to help with that.&nbsp; (The tax laws for 2021 were more generous and you may have received the child tax credit last year even if you did not work in 2021---that law expired and changed.&nbsp; &nbsp;You do not get the CTC or any other child-related credits if you did not work in 2022).</P> Wed, 25 Oct 2023 17:55:41 GMT https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/taxes/discussion/re-i-made-the-100-from-my-cleaning-company-a-friend-help-my-for-6months-with-my-expenses-and-i-used/01/3103900#M1138522 xmasbaby0 2023-10-25T17:55:41Z Re: I made the 100$ from my cleaning company a friend help my for 6months with my expenses and I used my emergency money for 6months https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/taxes/discussion/re-i-made-the-100-from-my-cleaning-company-a-friend-help-my-for-6months-with-my-expenses-and-i-used/01/3103939#M1138523 <P>If I am working and my 18 year old is working we live together can I still claim him as a dependent and HOH</P> Wed, 25 Oct 2023 18:03:26 GMT https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/taxes/discussion/re-i-made-the-100-from-my-cleaning-company-a-friend-help-my-for-6months-with-my-expenses-and-i-used/01/3103939#M1138523 Tia culmer 2023-10-25T18:03:26Z Re: I made the 100$ from my cleaning company a friend help my for 6months with my expenses and I used my emergency money for 6months https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/taxes/discussion/re-i-made-the-100-from-my-cleaning-company-a-friend-help-my-for-6months-with-my-expenses-and-i-used/01/3103967#M1138524 <P><a href="https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5088380">@Tia culmer</a>&nbsp; &nbsp; Try using the IRS earned income assistant.&nbsp; &nbsp;You could *maybe* get about $40 of earned income credit if you file a 2022 return.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;But your income was self-employment income----not income on a W-2, right?&nbsp; So no tax withheld?&nbsp; &nbsp;You cannot get child tax credit, period, because you earned so little and your child is older than 16.&nbsp;&nbsp;</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P class="p1"><SPAN class="s1"><A href="https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/1899157-what-are-the-qualifications-for-the-earned-income-credit-eic-or-eitc" target="_blank">https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/1899157-what-are-the-qualifications-for-the-earned-income-credit-eic-or-eitc</A></SPAN></P> <P class="p1"><SPAN class="s1"><A href="https://www.irs.gov/credits-deductions/individuals/earned-income-tax-credit/use-the-eitc-assistant" target="_blank">https://www.irs.gov/credits-deductions/individuals/earned-income-tax-credit/use-the-eitc-assistant</A></SPAN></P> Wed, 25 Oct 2023 18:10:30 GMT https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/taxes/discussion/re-i-made-the-100-from-my-cleaning-company-a-friend-help-my-for-6months-with-my-expenses-and-i-used/01/3103967#M1138524 xmasbaby0 2023-10-25T18:10:30Z
