I made 20000 last year, do I qualify for receiving the child tax credit? How does that work? I have one child and do qualify for the EIC. Oh,and on the 1040 line 46, do i write what%26#039;s on line 43 if i don%26#039;t have anything on 44 and 45? Any free tax advice would be nice
Do I qualify for the child tax credit?
On Form 1040 for 2006, Line 46 is the tax you owe. If there is nothing on Line 44 or 45, then there is a zero on Line 46. But Line 44 should be zero if you owe no tax, don%26#039;t leave it blank.
From your information, you owe no tax if Line 44 is zero. Therefore you have no Child Tax Credit since it is a credit that reduces your tax. But compute the Additional Child Tax Credit, Line 68, using Form 8812, and you may be pleasantly surprised.
Form 8812:

Yes you should qualify for child tax credit(if child is under 17), just not the additional child tax credit.

You can get your taxes done for free at a VITA site. Volunteers receive training, and prepare taxes. Most sites can file electronically.
Check irs.gov for more info on the program, and on finding a site near you. Most sites operate from February to mid-April.
