Child Tax Credit Eligibility
March 20th, 2009
Question: What are the eligibility exceptions re the Empire State child tax credit?
Are there any reasons why would I NOT be eligible to get it? I’m a New York State Resident & am the Custodial Parent of my 10-year old daughter.
Answer: Hello, BronxGal! According to the form instructions, any child that is elibigle for the federal child tax credit is eligible for the Empire State Child Credit.
If your daughter lived with you more than half the year, you have not filed Form 8332 releasing the dependency exemption to the father, and your income is within the limitations, you should be able to claim both credits. Good luck!
