1091:, expanded the child tax credit by allowing qualifying families to offset, for the 2021 tax year, $ 3,000 per child up to age 17 and $ 3,600 per child under age 6. The size of the benefit gradually diminished for single filers earning more than $ 75,000 per year, heads of households earning more than $ 112,500 per year, and married couples filing jointly making more than $ 150,000 a year. Additionally, it made the credit fully refundable, and half of the benefit was sent out to eligible households as monthly payments (i.e. it was delivered as 6 monthly payments + one lump-sum payment for the remaining half of the benefit). Full refundability made the full value of the credit available to lower-income families, who previously tended to receive little or no benefit. 579: 565: 1290:
erroneously claim the credits. Much of the complexity that leads to errors stems from claims involving qualifying children. This is because of the intricacy of the rules regarding who can claim a child in instances of divorce, separation, and three-generation families. The complexity of these rules increases compliance burden for taxpayers and administrative costs for the IRS...Our analysis of EITC and ACTC eligibility rules found that the qualifying child relationship rules are difficult to understand. In addition, the definition of key eligibility requirements is different between the two credits. This can cause confusion for taxpayers when trying to determine which credit(s) they are eligible to claim.

one qualifying child and a tax liability of $ 100, then they can use $ 100 of the CTC to reduce their tax liability to $ 0 and then claim the full $ 1,400 ACTC (which will be refunded to them) for a total benefit of $ 1,500. Note, however, that the sum of the ACTC and CTC cannot exceed the maximum credit of $ 2,000. For instance, a taxpayer with one qualifying child and an $ 800 tax liability can use $ 800 of the CTC to reduce their tax liability to $ 0, but can only claim $ 1,200 of the ACTC (which will be refunded to them), for the maximum allowable benefit of $ 2,000.

Accordingly, it is delivered as most tax breaks are: as a reduction in the amount of taxes a taxpayer owes to the government or, for the refundable portion, as a lump-sum payment delivered at the end of the tax year (the temporary expansion of the CTC for the year 2021, however, allowed beneficiaries to receive half of the CTC as a series of six monthly payments, with the other half delivered as a lump-sum payment at the end of 2021). A number of scholars and political commentators have argued that a monthly 51: 1066: 1322:(IRS) inability to deliver benefits to all eligible households, particularly low-income households. This became especially acute during the temporary expansion of the CTC in 2021, which made the lowest income families eligible for the full benefit for the first time (prior to the change, the CTC had an income threshold and phase-in, so administrative problems affecting low-income families were less substantial for the simple reason that many low-income families were ineligible for the benefit). To determine eligibility, the IRS uses taxpayers' 1256: 1163: 453: 702:
individual for whom the taxpayer can claim a dependency exemption and who is the taxpayer's son or daughter (or descendant of either), stepson or stepdaughter (or descendant of either), or eligible foster child. For unmarried couples or married couples filing separately, a qualifying child will be treated as such for the purpose of the CTC for the taxpayer who is the child's parent, or if not a parent, the taxpayer with the highest adjusted gross income (AGI) for the taxable year in accordance with 26 U.S.C. Sec. 152(c)(4)(A).

eligible for .15($ 8,000–$ 2,500)=$ 825 of the ACTC. Notice that the income range of the phase-in increases with the number of qualifying children: a taxpayer making $ 30,000, for instance, could claim the full ACTC if they have one child (since .15($ 30,000 – $ 2,500) = $ 4,125 is greater than the maximum allowable $ 1,400 for one child) but could not claim the full credit if they have three children (since .15($ 30,000 – $ 2,500) = $ 4,125 is less than the maximum allowable $ 1,400 x 3 = $ 4,200 for three children).

It would have had a larger income threshold than the CTC, requiring parents to make at least $ 7,540 in income (the equivalent of 20 hours of work per week at the federal minimum wage of $ 7.25 per hour) to claim the credit; it would have no income phase-out.

Evidence on cash transfers, like the refundable portion of the CTC, shows that children in families receiving them have improved math and reading test scores, a higher likelihood of high school graduation, and a 1–2% increase in earnings in adulthood; they also lead to "persistent" increases in parents' earned income.

The child benefit under Romney's plan would be larger than that of the ARP (except for very large families, who would have their benefit capped under Romney's plan) and would substantially reduce child poverty, though to a lesser extent than the ARP because Romney's plan would be financed in part by substantially reducing the 1021:

The maximum credit a taxpayer can receive is thus equal to the number of qualifying children multiplied by $ 2,000 (e.g. a family with 3 qualifying children is eligible for $ 2,000 x 3 = $ 6,000 in tax relief).
