What does that mean? You could be asking about a number of a things in that regard. You can use more than 3 words. The posting requirement is to use a minimum of 3 words. The question field has a 170 character limit, but there is also another box below that with plenty of room for even more info, if needed.

You can post more info in this thread by posting directly under my comment where some faint gray text says "add or request more details here."

You have not provided us with any information at all about your daughter, so we cannot answer.

IRS interview to help determine who can be claimed:

The money you hear about people getting for just filing a tax return claiming kids requires them to have some earned income (wages or self employment). Without earned income, they are not eligible for the "refundable" Earned Income Credit or Additional Child Tax Credit. Both credits are calculated on the amount of earned income you have. No earned income means no "refund". A small amount of earned income means a small refund. The child tax credit does not "kick in" unless you have at least $2500 of earned income.
