🚨 Let’s Clear Up the $2,200 Child Tax Credit Talk 🚨

If you’ve been seeing posts saying “everyone gets $2,200 per child” — pause. That’s not the full story.

Here’s the real breakdown ⬇️

✅ The Child Tax Credit is worth up to $2,200 per qualifying child

Those two words matter: up to

Here’s how it actually works:

• The credit first goes toward any federal taxes owed

• If there’s little or no tax owed, you may still get part of it back

• The refundable portion is called the Additional Child Tax Credit (ACTC)

💡 ACTC basics:

• Max refundable amount: $1,700 per child

• You must have at least $2,500 in earned income

• Earned income = W-2 or self-employed work

• The refund phases in gradually based on income

That’s why:

❌ Not everyone gets the same refund

❌ Viral posts can be misleading

✅ Income + work history matter

This is exactly why we don’t rely on internet headlines — we rely on facts and the IRS code.

📌 Pro tip: If you’re a tax pro, make sure you’re explaining this clearly to clients before expectations are set.

Clarity builds trust. Confusion creates problems.
