- 8 - taxpayer is allowed to claim a child tax credit in an amount that is the lesser of the full child tax credit or the taxpayer’s Federal income tax liability for the taxable year. See sec. 26(a). If the child tax credit exceeds the taxpayer’s Federal income tax liability for the taxable year, a portion of the child tax credit may be refundable as an “additional child tax credit” under section 24(d)(1). Because petitioner is not entitled to a child tax credit, she is not entitled to an additional child tax credit. Reviewed and adopted as the report of the Small Tax Case Division. To reflect the foregoing, Decision will be entered for respondent.Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
