To be eligible to claim the Child Tax Credit and/or the Other Dependent Credit, the dependent must meet certain criteria.
To qualify for the Child Tax Credit, the dependent must be a qualifying child who is under the age of 17 at the end of the tax year, and must meet the requirements for being a qualifying child as defined by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). This includes being a dependent of the taxpayer, being a U.S. citizen or resident, and meeting certain relationship, age, and residence requirements.
To qualify for the Other Dependent Credit, the dependent must be a qualifying relative as defined by the IRS. This includes being a dependent of the taxpayer, not being a qualifying child for the Child Tax Credit, and meeting certain relationship, support, and residence requirements.
