Bill overview
This bill proposes significant changes to the Child Tax Credit, aiming to make it more generous and accessible to more families. It would increase the maximum credit amount to $5,000 per child, eliminate income limitations on who can claim the credit, and make the credit fully refundable, meaning families would receive the credit even if they don’t owe taxes. The bill also removes several outdated provisions related to the credit’s application.
