Go to this IRS website for information on who qualifies for the child tax credit - https://www.irs.gov/credits-deductions/individuals/child-tax-credit
A cousin is usually considered ANOTHER PERSON which doesn't qualify for the CTC or EIC UNLESS they are your stepchild by marriage or fosterchild (placed by the courts) or you legally adopt them.
Thank you both. I read that its suppose to be certain family but I figured I was putting something in wrong. You would figure a child is a child and he's family.
