Marriage, Divorce & Family
“What credits can I claim on my taxes with a new baby?”
A new baby can change a tax return in several ways, and the available credits often depend on the child’s age, relationship, residency, and whether the baby has a Social Security number by filing time. The answer can also vary based on household income, filing status, and whether both parents live together or file separately. In some cases, related items such as dependent care costs, adoption expenses, or child-related benefits may also come into play. The exact mix of credits and phaseouts depends on the family’s facts and the year being filed. Going through your records with a CPA usually surfaces the answer in under an hour.
