The child tax credit for tax year 2022 reverted back to the original amounts after tax year 2021.

The child must be under the age of 17 to be eligible for the $2,000 child tax credit.  If the child is 17 or older then they are only eligible for the Other Dependent credit of $500.

Sorry has to be UNDER 17 on Dec 31, 2022 to get the Child Tax Credit.The rules changed for 2022.  They went back to the old rules.
