Financial Support with Child Care Tax Credits

Child care tax credits are a valuable resource for families looking to reduce the cost of early education and care. Updated for the 2024 fiscal year, these credits offer financial relief and help parents manage expenses more effectively. Below is a summary of the key tax credits available:

  • Federal Child Tax Credit (CTC)

    Eligible families in 2024 can receive up to $2,000 per qualifying child, with $1,700 of that amount refundable. This credit provides essential support for families who meet the IRS’s specific eligibility criteria.

  • Adoption Tax Credit

    Families incurring adoption-related expenses may qualify for up to $16,810 in tax credits for 2024. Households with a Modified Adjusted Gross Income (MAGI) under $292,150 are eligible for the full credit, which can be carried forward for up to five years.

  • Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC)

    The EITC offers up to $7,830 for families with three or more qualifying children. Designed to support low- and moderate-income families, this refundable credit is based on specific income thresholds determined by the IRS.

  • Important Considerations

    Each tax credit comes with unique eligibility requirements. To ensure you maximize your benefits, we recommend consulting a tax professional and investigating state-level credits available in California.
