Where do I look on my tax return to determine how much my Dependent Tax Credit was worth?

[kimberlykoury]

I have two adult dependents. One is disabled and one is elderly. I financially support both of them. This year and last year returns look different. I am trying to determine if I received any credits in 2021 and if I received any in 2022, despite listing them in both. They both qualify based on stated rules (no income, financially dependent on me, etc) but I do not see any listed dollar amount "helping" me reduce my owed amount. That, and the forms look different YOY.

Look on line 19 of your Form 1040.  If you claimed adults as dependents you can get the $500 credit for other dependents.   It is not a refundable credit.  It can reduce your tax owed.
