My child is 8 and I’m a single mom. She lives with me and is provided for by me since birth. Why is she NOT qualifying for the child tax credit?!

You must have earned income from working of more than $2500 to qualify for the credit. Did you have that amount of income? Have you entered it on your tax return?

Have you entered your W-2 or self-employment income yet? You will not see the child tax credit if you have not yet entered the income you earned from working.
