If I don't owe money for taxes, will my tax credit that I receive for my children turn into a refund?

Possibly. Some tax credits, such as the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) are refundable, which means they are treated as if they were withheld from a paycheck. 

The only way to know for sure is to enter all of your income and dependent information into TurboTax.
