to notify of their eligibility for the credit.<\/span><\/p>\nA word of caution regarding this credit:<\/b> These monthly payments are an <\/span>advanced credit<\/span><\/i> of what you already get in your taxes each year. The government is now giving you half of the credit now in advance instead of waiting for you to file your tax return next year. $1000 of that is the extra amount but $500 of that is what you would have normally gotten when you filed your return.\u00a0 Now, that $500 will be automatically deducted from what you normally would have claimed on your tax return the following year because it has already been given in advance.\u00a0 When you file your taxes next year, if you normally would get a refund, it will now be $500 less than it normally would be.\u00a0 If you normally owe in taxes, this loss of credit will increase your tax liability by $500. You\u2019ll want to be sure you budget accordingly to prepare for this decrease in tax refund or increase in tax liability.<\/span><\/p>\nFor those whose income exceeds the thresholds and do not qualify for the additional $1000 credit, they will still get the original $2000 credit per child, with monthly installments from July to December covering half of the credit, or $1000 per child. This means next year when you file your income taxes, if you normally receive a tax refund, it will be $1,000 less. And if you normally have a balance owed when you file, you will owe $1000 more. Again, this is because you have already received from the government that $1000 in advance rather than waiting until you file your taxes to claim it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nLet\u2019s look at another example.\u00a0 A person will four children who qualifies for the credit can expect to owe $2,000 more or receive $2,000 less in tax refund next year.\u00a0 If you don’t qualify, you can expect to owe $4000 more or receive $4,000 less in tax refund next year. You can figure out the impact by multiplying the advanced tax credit by the number of children you have so you can be prepared for that impact.<\/span><\/p>\nWe encourage you to make sure you get the chance to discuss with your tax advisor and prepare for the impact on your taxes next year and budget accordingly. You wouldn\u2019t want to spend all of the money you receive from the monthly payments and then be shocked by the tax bill you receive next year without having a way to pay for it. So again, prepare yourself for any potential impact it may have on you. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Hello everyone, today\u2019s vlog will cover the Child Tax Credit today.
