For tax year 2023 you must have income of at least $2,500 from work to be eligible for the child tax credit. If you have no income of any kind then you do not need to file a tax return.

AND….If you have children but had little or no income, it raises the question of how you and the children were supported. There may be another tax-paying adult who can claim you and/or the children as dependents.
