Child tax credit
$600 for the year??? Holy crap. I get $461 a month for 2 children. Then
again, I don't get any child support, I wonder if that's taken into account in the governments calculation. That's a refund of taxes you have already paid. It's not a support payment of any kind. Joelle The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page - St Augustine Joelle |

Christine That's what I was thinking, Christine. I have EXACTLY the same situation as you. I have two kids, get $461.21 per month and I also get no child support. I just figured the difference was because Canada is different. |

I don't think that the child tax credit has anything to do with child support, but I could be wrong. I get the GST rebate as well, and can't remember how much that is. |

I don't think that the child tax credit has anything to do with child support, but I could be wrong. I get the GST rebate as well, and can't remember how much that is. You're correct... the child tax credit is unrelated to child support in the US. The child tax credit is nothing more than a tax break for families to reduce the amount of income tax that we have to pay every year. Everyone with dependent children received an "advance" in the form of a check, from the IRS, but that amount will be deducted from the credit when filing our 2003 income taxes. Nan Child tax credit, here anyways, is based on income, so, I found out, it is related to all income, be it from working, disability, welfare, child support, etc. If a parent currently gets x amount for their x amount of children from the child tax benefit, they make a gross income under a certain amount. Let's say, since I'm not good at explaining things, you have sole custody of your child, and the non custodial parent pays child support. If that alimony paying parent, let's say, pays $100 a month, and let's say you make a total income of $1000/month, then you'd qualify for the child tax credit because, here anyways, a total of $1100/month total income isn't high enough to not get the child tax credit. Now, if you make $1000/month, and your child's mother/father pays $3000/month for child support, then you have a total income of $4000 a month, and make enough income to not receive the CTC. So, to my understanding, child support does play a role, but in most cases, I feel safe enough to assume the majority of child support paid is not THAT high, although I know it does happen. Ok, maybe that made no sense. I don't really want to read what I said because I'm sure I'll be editing until the cows come home. |
