For the full child tax credit, your child must be under the age of 17. You can learn more here.

The child has to be under the age of 17 on 12/31/2024 to be eligible for the Child Tax Credit. If they are age 17 or older then they are eligible for the Other Dependent Credit of $500.

My domestic partner has health issues that prevent him from working full time, requiring me to pay to care for us. Could I change my status to head of household mid year?
